New York Fashion Week SS24 had its noise—Helmut Lang pulling the spotlight—but Luar didn’t need to shout. Raul Lopez isn’t interested in spectacle for spectacle’s sake. He lets the work speak, and it carries its own charge.
Luar effortlessly carries the “it factor.”
Lopez bends tailoring and structure just enough to make you lean in. Since his first runway in 2018, he’s been in conversation with New York itself—felt in the casting, in the confidence of the silhouettes. Each collection adds another layer to the city’s unfinished story.
His references aren’t surface-level. They come from Lopez himself: Dominican roots, New Yorker pace, a life lived inside the city’s contradictions. The Ana bag proved his range. Practical. Iconic. A cult piece that moved from the underground to the mainstream without losing its edge. A CFDA win sealed it, but the real proof is in who carries it.
When Beyoncé turned up at his Bushwick show, it wasn’t about star power—it was a signal. Luar had become a center of gravity. Each season now, Lopez’s collections arrive less like product drops and more like dispatches from a cultural front line.
Luar is more than a buzzy name on the NYFW schedule- it shifts the temperature. And Lopez, a decade deep, is still turning the dial.
