Loeffler Randall X Underwater Weaving Basket Tote in Lemon/Cacao, MSRP $39
Loeffler Randall, the New York-based fashion house renowned for its signature footwear, ready-to-wear and accessories, announces a collaboration with Underwater Weaving, the cult-favorite label celebrated for its handcrafted baskets. Launching Tuesday, March 10th as part of Loeffler Randall’s Spring Collection, the Loeffler Randall X Underwater Weaving Basket Tote will be available in two exclusive colorways
Born from the longstanding friendship between founders Jessie Randall and Erin Pollard, the collaboration brings together their shared appreciation of craftsmanship and timeless design. The capsule features Underwater Weaving’s Retro-Travel Tote, a handwoven basket bag beloved by Jessie, in two exclusive stripe colorways intended to complement Loeffler Randall’s newest assortment.
“Erin’s baskets are my favorites! Getting to choose exclusive colors to pair with our collection was a dream come true. I’m grateful for any chance to work with a friend like Erin Pollard, whose creative vision always leaves me inspired.”
— Jessie Randall, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Loeffler Randall
As friends and co-founders of their own craft club, Jessie and Erin have long delighted in all things handmade. It’s a passion at the heart of Underwater Weaving’s founding ethos and one that effuses Loeffler Randall’s signature silhouettes, from hand-crocheted ballet flats to custom-designed filet lace motifs inspired by vintage sources. Both founders share a commitment to quality materials and thoughtful construction, creating pieces meant to be cherished for years. The baskets in this exclusive collaboration embody that belief — wearable art-pieces intended for daily commutes, picnics and special getaways for years to come.
“I crave objects and clothing that tell a story. What I’ve always loved about Jessie’s designs is the way the collections infuse familiar handcrafted details and codes that capture a particular nostalgia for my New England childhood. Collaborating with Jessie on these striped totes for Loeffler Randall was the perfect way to capture that spirit. We wanted to pay homage to the connection we feel toward craft in a cheeky “Americana” way — but give them a fresh, joyful update for the spring season."
— Erin Pollard, Founder of Underwater Weaving
