Uniqlo is launching its second collaboration with designer Anya Hindmarch on 21 November under the title of “An Eye for Curiosity”.
It will feature 11 women’s pieces and four kid’s items including outerwear, knitwear and accessories, blending Hindmarch’s signature craftsmanship with a hint of playfulness and Uniqlo’s functionality.
Hindmarch, who first collaborated with Uniqlo for AW23, said: “I’ve loved collaborating with Uniqlo again, working with their iconic knits and outerwear. Once again, we’ve played with their silhouettes; deconstructing and then rebuilding them with darning stitches, knitted-in patches, and unexpected details, creating special designs – always with a touch of fun.”
Outerwear comes with high-performance PUFFERTECH padding for warmth and lightness, with details such as small pockets on the sleeves.
Merino wool sweaters for kids – a first for Uniqlo – have a comfortable feel and are easy to clean. Unique, playful features include a thumbhole on the right sleeve which has mouth-inspired stitching, and an embroidered eyes motif on the chest – brought together they create “a face of joy”.
Cashmere sweaters come with darning stitches and knitted patches and there’s also cashmere knit beanies and arm warmers with eye motifs, as well as mittens, knitted scarves, and socks in HEATTECH material.
The collection will be available at selected Uniqlo stores in the UK as well as on the retailer’s website, with prices ranging from £5.90 to £109.90.
