Final Uniqlo/Ines de la Fressange collab out April 5
THE 10-YEAR collaboration between fast fashion brand Uniqlo and French designer Ines de La Fressange has run its course and will be marked with a final Spring/Summer collection which will be available on April 5. This range of LifeWear celebrates the effortless Parisian style of Ines de la Fressange, a symbol of French chic and a style icon for women around the world. The partnership began with the 2014 Spring/Summer collection, and over the last decade has delivered timeless French chic in a universal style. This collection is a return to French basics, suitable for the final chapter, and reflecting the designer’s penchant for styles that make the wearer feel comfortable. There are denim coveralls in light ounce denim with cotton for softness of the material, linen cotton skirts with a fluffy silhouette and classic cotton shirts are emblematic of the timeless items favored by the designer. Fast Retailing Group Senior Executive Officer Koji Yanai commented: “I am confident that our customers will enjoy our final collaboration line. Ines-san, thank you for the wonderful 10 years of our partnership.” The 2024 Spring/Summer Collection will be available at select stores in the Philippines and through uniqlo.com.
