Look at U(niqlo)

The first 2 collections of Lemaire for Uniqlo must've been so popular, they've decided to make it permanent.

Similar to how Jil Sander had her +J collection under the brand, Christophe Lemaire now helms the Uniqlo U brand.




My first encounter with this collaboration was during my last trip to Tokyo last September. They were already buzzing about it in the Ginza main store, and they had images of the pieces from the collection.

True to Lemaire's aesthetic, a lot of them were chunky knits, comfy pieces and basics with a twist. It's perfect for countries with sweater weather.


Unfortunately, we don't have that kind of weather here in Manila. But hey, that didn't stop Uniqlo from bringing it in.

Yup, the collection is here in Manila! They already have it in the Uniqlo Megamall store, and it's a pretty solid collection.

They have this nice duo tone knit dress that's very versatile. Plus a black, denim dress that has that Paris chic to it.

Let's see if it's eventually worth buying.
