Uniqlo is a serial collaborator. In the past the Japanese high street brand has teamed up with Ines de la Fressange, Pharell, Celia Birtwell, Jil Sander and Helmut Lang. Now it has announced its latest partner in crime: Lemaire.
The French label is designed by former Artistic Director of Hermès, Christophe Lemaire, and Sarah Linh-Tran and has a knack for creating luxury wardrobe staples – which makes it the perfect fit. ‘We have always dreamt to work with Uniqlo,’ say the pair. ‘Uniqlo designs qualitative and made for all garments for everyday life, for everyone. It is also out approach to fashion, and the philosophy of Lemaire.’
The collaboration will cover both a women’s and men’s collection and will drop into stores for a/w 2015.
