(FASHION) Uniqlo Launch Special Collaboration with Ines de la Fressange

Early this month, I blogged about Uniqlo Philippines as they launched their fall/winter collection for 2014 (ARTICLE HERE). This time, they announces another collaboration with a very popular french fashion icon, Ines de la Fressange. This is the second collection and is bigger and remains true to the esprit and elegance of the first.

The Uniqlo SM Megamall display on the photo below looks very interesting. I have been reading Ines’ fashion tips on some lifestyle and fashion magazine and I think she exudes style and comfort at the same time.

Commenting on the second collaboration line, Ines de la Fressange said, “I wanted to retain the spirit we created in the Spring Summer collection. I love things that are unadorned, genuine, and comfortable to wear. For the Fall Winter items, I wanted to create lovely things that have the same elegance. One of the traditional European fabrics I wanted to include was tweed. With coats and jackets, the fabric and cut are important, and it was a real treat for me to be able to incorporate playful details and enjoy styling the clothing freely.

The collaboration line is an iteration of UNIQLO’s LifeWear, aimed at enriching lives through quality clothing. Rather than following trends, it focuses on what Ines herself wears, to look and feel great. Each detail, from the height of the waist and opening of the neckline to overall fit, has been carefully refined through a long fitting process with Ines herself, to create a perfectly balance collection.

Here is my blogger friend Lou, choosing something for her OOTD

Featuring smartly cut shirts, classic trench and tweed coats, casual cashmeres, chic trousers and Ines’ favorites, like the elegant tuxedo jacket and simple silk dresses, each piece translates easily from day to night.

And each is a great addition to any woman’s, but most especially a working woman’s wardrobe. The collection’s understated elegance is predicted to resonate across women of all ages and cultures. A true testament to UNIQLO’s global fashionability.
