Our Story

Two Legacies.

One Purpose.

For 70 years, Lowenthal has been a trusted name in Virginia Beach — a destination for those who appreciate the finest in luxury outerwear. From mink to fox, sable to chinchilla, generations of clients have entrusted us with their most treasured garments.

Today, that legacy continues. Lowenthal is now presented by Alan Furs, a family-owned furrier with over 75 years of craftsmanship serving clients throughout Virginia. Together, we honor what was built — and carry it forward with the same dedication to quality, care, and lasting relationships.
