UNIQLO x Clare Waight Keller: Pure natural sophistication

The acclaimed British designer, former creative director of Chloe and Givenchy, joins the UNIQLO team to create a new women’s collection full of fluid designs, modern silhouettes and delicate colours.

Under the name UNIQLO: C comes the new selection of pieces inspired by the letter C: Curiosity, Conversion, City, Clarity, Connection and Creativity (as well as Clare, of course) in which advanced techniques and design sophistication have reached the exact middle ground, resulting in a level of comfort and functionality that is perfect for everyday wear.

In this collection, every garment seems tailor-made. The trench coats adapt to any season. Quilted coats are made lighter thanks to the anti-static technology of down. Flowing dresses are infused with nostalgic prints.

“Clare’s extensive experience and her designs, which fully appreciate the modern woman, will usher in a new standard for women’s LifeWear,” says Yukihiro Katsuta of UNIQLO.

UNIQLO: C will arrive on the web and in UNIQLO shops worldwide on 15 September. In the meantime, you can discover the pieces in the gallery above.
