Eva Victor Brings Cool English Professor Energy to Loewe

On a normal day, Sorry Baby writer, director, and star Eva Victor is liable to wear any of the following items: “Big shirt, big pants, sometimes shorts, tank tops, jeans, sweaters, trousers, button downs, Converse, Uggs, loafers,” they say. The brief? “Sometimes ‘kid wearing dad’s clothes’ and sometimes ‘English professor who lets their students use their first name.’”

For Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s inaugural Loewe show in Paris today, Victor and their stylist, Danielle Goldberg, leaned into the cool English professor look: a custom blue layered button-down with black straight-legged trousers that revealed the rounded toe of a black pump. “I LOVE these layered button downs—they are so comfortable and airy and effortlessly chic, and Britt Lower was wearing one in green today that I now need for myself,” she says. “This look makes me feel like there’s always a summer breeze brushing past me.”

It should come as no surprise that Victor—who also played a doctoral student, and later professor, in Sorry Baby—brought that cerebral approach to the show. “The amazing thing about preparing for a fashion show is you’re getting ready to honor this burst of work—it is so climactic, it is ten minutes of pure energy and inspiration and beauty—it feels like a moving museum or something,” she says. “Here, I get to simply receive the work. It’s such an honor to be in the first group of people seeing artistic expression live like this.”

When it came to the runway itself, Victor left not with standout looks in mind, but an overall feeling. “It felt more like bursts of texture and color and energy, and like I was left with a feeling of brightness and youth and summer and strength,” they say. Still, that isn’t stopping them from building out their wishlist. “I loved the structured leather jackets, especially when they were styled with nothing underneath, the sweaters tied into shirts, the big butter-colored fringed jacket, the clear pumps with bright socks inside. There were these bright striped long dresses that I will be begging to try on…so many explosive, celebratory moments, I can’t choose one.”
