Loewe: The TikTok trailblazer redefining luxury on social media
The secret to Loewe's TikTok dominance lies in its ability to embrace and reinterpret trends with a unique twist. It's not just about fashion; the brand weaves in elements from pop culture, food, and everyday life, transforming viral moments into distinctively Loewe content. For instance, a viral "tomato" meme was reinterpreted with a meticulously crafted leather tomato accessory, generating buzz. This playful yet strategic integration allows the brand to remain authentic while pushing creative boundaries. Viral Tomato Meme, Credits: Instagram / @jonathan.anderson
The result is unparalleled engagement: Loewe boasts nearly 2.3 million followers and consistently sees millions of views across its videos. Among luxury brands, as highlighted in the TikTok Fashion Index, Loewe boasts the highest interaction levels and views, with nearly every video reaching the coveted million-view mark. While many top brands might achieve 1-2 viral content pieces per month, Loewe elevates this to 6-7, demonstrating a profound understanding of the platform's viral mechanics. This digital prowess has contributed to its recent ascent; the brand has frequently topped industry metrics like the Lyst Index, notably reigning as the world's hottest brand in Q2 2024 and Q1 2025, reflecting a significant surge in brand desirability and market performance. @loewe It's called the #CarrieCoon White Lotus Squeeze Bag now. #LOEWE ♬ original sound - LOEWE
What makes Loewe's TikTok strategy so effective? A deep understanding of platform-specific content tailoring. While its Instagram presence exudes an aesthetic, artsy, and polished vibe, TikTok becomes a playground for relatability and experimentation. Loewe's content on TikTok is funny, delightfully awkward, and often feels unscripted. It features a diverse cast, from A-list celebrities engaging in candid, often chaotic short talks, to influential athletes and popular TikTok content creators. This unfiltered, human-centric approach speaks directly to Gen Z and beyond, making it nearly impossible to scroll through a For You page without encountering a captivating piece of Loewe content. @loewe Light as a �- our new Featherlight Puzzle bag. #LOEWE ♬ original sound - LOEWE
Loewe's success on TikTok demonstrates a crucial shift in luxury marketing. The primary aim isn't direct sales transactions on the platform, but rather a strategy focused on increasing brand reputation and relatability. It's a move away from traditional exclusivity and toward an inclusive, dynamic dialogue, allowing people to connect with the brand even if its items are high-end and expensive.
By embracing the platform's native language, humor, and spontaneity, Loewe proves that high fashion can be both aspirational and approachable. The brand isn't just selling products; it's cultivating emotional connections, planting seeds of aspiration, and building a loyal community that genuinely loves its authentic, engaging presence. The brand's fearless embrace of the "chronically online" ethos is a masterclass in modern digital marketing, solidifying its position as a true trailblazer in the luxury space.

Is ‘princess treatment' a harmless trend – or yet more fuel for misogyny?
Do you wish you were a princess? Do you crave being cosseted and showered with gifts, having every door opened and every chair pulled out? Perhaps you'd rather not pay for your clothes; maybe you're sick of deciding what to eat and where. Courtney Palmer can help. The self-proclaimed housewife princess has a series of TikTok videos on 'princess treatment' and how to get it. It's a matter of accepting compliments graciously, dressing the part, being unapologetically good to yourself (disappointingly, this seems to mean exercising and drinking water) but mostly ministering to your partner, who is treated as a weirdly needy and highly suggestible man-baby. Would-be princesses should create a calm, frictionless domestic paradise for their provider prince, 'speaking in a feminine way – we're not screaming, yelling; we're not cursing', thanking him for picking up his dirty underwear. Princess treatment is the reward and it comes in the form of diamond earrings, Chanel flats, flowers and old-school chivalry. It's emetic and, in a recent TikTok that catapulted Palmer into a more critical spotlight, disturbing. Explaining what princess treatment looks like at a restaurant, Palmer said: 'I do not interact with the waitress; I do not open any doors and I do not order my own food … You do not need to talk unless you are spoken to … You're not going to be laughing loudly, speaking loudly, demanding the attention of the restaurant.' Yikes. Palmer called it 'letting your husband lead and be masculine' and 'a fun princess treatment thing'. Commenters found it cult-like, concerning and bizarre. 'As a former waitress, I would have slipped you a note and asked if you're OK or if I should call the police,' one said. I do wonder how real any of this is. Does 'princess treatment' exist beyond its social-media shop window? Tradwives aren't tradwives, after all – they are content creators, and winding people up with jaw-droppingly regressive gender messaging generates revenue: outrage drives eyeballs and eyeballs mean dollars. Nara Smith, famed for wearing OTT dresses while making her own bubblegum and breakfast cereal, was recently reported by Cosmopolitan to be earning an estimated $200,000 a month on TikTok. Most relationships are nothing like what Palmer presents, or like other pearly-toothed, wholesome TikTok couples who jokily quiz each other on what constitutes princess treatment or a relationship 'bare minimum'. My own husband occasionally gives me 'goose treatment' – a careful wide berth – but our marriage is not a transactional game. Couples of all varieties mostly muddle through, trying to be decent to each other. But Palmer et al are servicing a real aspiration, or at least a relatable fantasy. I get it, kind of – it would be nice if every day were like my birthday (but not nice enough to spend my life cooking and cleaning while wearing broderie anglaise to achieve it). And I suppose that in a time of global turmoil, having a 'provider' can feel like security. But it's the opposite: relinquishing autonomy – bodily, financial, intellectual – leaves women dangerously vulnerable. And this stuff isn't anodyne: it confirms the manosphere's misogynistic assumptions about 'alphas' and 'high-value females', and empowers rollers-back of reproductive rights, reinforcing the idea that it's OK to take decisions on women's behalf (they don't even want to order a side of fries for themselves!). The 'princess' label is pretty accurate. Historically, princesses provided beauty and babies, and were largely powerless; royal marriages were transactional arrangements. And as Hilary Mantel was unfairly criticised for writing about the then-Duchess of Cambridge, princess life is still stultifying, mostly about projecting irreproachable, mute perfection. There's definitely no 'cursing'. Maybe some women enjoy imagining a life of calm, cared-for passivity – but could content at least get more creative? How about 'goddess treatment': demand offerings and sacrifices, keep people on their toes with the prospect of being turned into something nasty? If that's not passive enough, how about 'pet treatment'? Imagine being treated like a house cat: loved unconditionally and lavished with gifts for nothing more than napping, shedding hair, eating, demanding strokes and occasionally lashing out for no reason. If a TikToker could tell me how to get 'cat treatment', I'd definitely like and follow. Emma Beddington is a Guardian columnist Do you have an opinion on the issues raised in this article?

Netflix has me hooked on this 'naughty' hidden gem Spanish period drama
This week I've been bingeing a new-to-me period drama that's a whole heap of fun, but I somehow missed when it was initially released earlier this year. However, my Netflix recommendations eventually came through for me last weekend when they suggested I try a Spanish historical show. A hidden gem, The Lady's Companion tells the story of chaperone Elena Bianda (Nadia de Santiago), who is hired on a trial basis to find husbands for three wealthy sisters (Isa Montalbán's Cristina, Zoe Bonafonte's Sara and Iratxe Emparán as Carlota) in Madrid by their foreboding father, Don Pedro (Tristán Ulloa). Battling the sharp elbows of her fellow chaperones alongside frustrating relatives of the family's, it soon becomes clear that Elena is also hiding from a past that comes back to bite her, with the audience drawn into a late 19th-century world of love, scandal and comic intrigue. And obviously there are several potential suitors running around, causing chaos, including Álvaro Mel as Santiago, Iván Lapadula as Eduardo and Carloto Cotta as Gabriel. Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. I would describe The Lady's Companion (Spanish title: Manual para señoritas) as a mix between Bridgerton and Fleabag with a touch of Amélie's vibrant colour and whimsy, producing an entertaining and period drama in its own right – with a sprinkling of naughtiness. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video It has some of the sauciness and irreverence towards the traditional view of these kinds of shows as Bridgerton does; there are certainly some pre-marital bedroom shenanigans going on from as early as the first episode… Our heroine Elena regularly breaks the fourth wall, addressing the camera and talking directly to the audience à la Fleabag (although no one's caught her out yet, like Andrew Scott's Hot Priest). She also argues with the show's narrator when she deems he's stepping out of line. While the abundance of flowers and the characters' gorgeously sumptuous dresses are also reminiscent of Bridgerton, with the brightness turned up to 11 on the colour as well as the quirkiness of fun graphics onscreen, we are also – knowingly – enjoying the artifice and fantasy, as with Jean-Pierre Jeunet's 2001 French film starring Audrey Tauou. The Lady's Companion also reminds me a bit of The Law According to Lidia Poët, although this show has matchmaking and romance more at the centre of it than Lidia Poët's mystery and crime. But Sara's quest to become a doctor also has a clear parallel to Lidia's experience as a female lawyer also trying to succeed in a male dominated profession and society. The show boasts plenty of racy moments alongside the general rebelliousness of its female characters, including its very own raunchy carriage-based rendezvous and plenty of illicit affairs. Anachronistic music choices are also injected, like Bridgerton, to spice up certain scenes, such as Whitney Houston's version of I Will Always Love You and The Turtles' iconic 1967 song Happy Together soundtracking a group dance number. I'm far from the only one enjoying The Lady's Companion either, with it nabbing 89% from fan reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. 'Amazing! I binge watched this. It is witty, funny, romantic, and has a fascinating storyline that forces you to develop an attachment to the characters. It is impossible not to love this series,' enthused Elise Hartley in a Google review as Rawan Najji G added: 'I love it. Can't wait for season TWOOO LETS GOO [si]. I literally finished it in one day y'all 😭😭' Sylvia W also revealed she had 'binged it in less than a week, which is very unusual for me' on Rotten Tomatoes, while Hannah labelled it 'a must watch'. More Trending 'Me and the wife could not stop laughing. We both agree they MUST not leave us hanging and bring it back for season 2,' chimed in Erich H. Sadly, it looks like The Lady's Companion may have fallen foul of the Netflix curse after the streamer confirmed in May that it had been cancelled after one season – despite being shaped around a continuation and ending on a cliff-hanger. Still, if you enjoy escaping into the safe space of a glossy and witty period drama, there are eight episodes waiting for you, nonetheless.
