UNIQLO 2023 Spring/Summer LifeWear Collection

Got to see the newest Uniqlo 2023 Spring/Summer LifeWear Collection a few days ago at Makati's Whitespace events place in Chino Roces. 

 For starters, they've managed to put in a lot of the clothes in color with very breathable material. As far as I know, Uniqlo has been working on that technology for years and it is really working for us in the severely tropical climate. Shirts, Shorts and Skirts, full on dresses are available for those who need pieces that work night and day. 

For those who are also working in airconditioned and cold offices, they've got several full on jackets and hoodies that are in hues of blue, purple, creams and whites (even a few denims) yet still dressed up so you don't have to worry about those formal meetings.

 About the clothing, they announced new tech in clothes that actually block UV rays. I mean, that's something absolutely amazing for people who adore the outdoors but didn't want to get skin problems right? Summer would surely be different, I'd love how that will develop in the near future.

The UT shirts have always been my favorite, but one of the artists that they featured were actually sick, I bought one of them right after the show (and consequently wearing it today!). I like the part where it says "Bless this mess!" or "I found the one my soul loves!", statement shirts and a few Andy Warhol inspired designs that would be so nice to wear during the season.

 

Aside from that, Matteo Guidicelli and Sarah Geronimo were in the venue to show us the jackets, parkas, which Matteo loves. Sarah even wore a white number which I think is also from Uniqlo. For what it's worth, I really love the part where they are continuously working on technology that makes clothing environmentally friendly, have less footprint, and also benefit the larger populace.

I also like how they give us OPTIONS, something that most clothing brands regret to not do because of the sheer size of people who need to wear them. Congratulations Uniqlo!

UNIQLO Set to Launch JW Anderson Line on the 14th

It was certainly a fresh look at basics when UNIQLO showcased their Fall/Winter 2022 collection. It's a combination of new creations, useful basic clothing that is interpreted by different designers they worked with this particular season. It wasn't all dark and wintery, as a matter of fact, I kinda like what they did with staples worn by Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach and Vlogger Restaurateur Erwan Heussaff. Matteo Guidicelli also shared his favorites especially the jackets and athleisure wear.

I personally paid attention to the several Tweed Jackets, Plaids, Wool, mostly from the JW ANDERSON collection. I also loved the new UT shirts and the classic ones that are making a comeback with designs of Capcom and Sega characters like MEGAMAN, Sonic the Hedgehog, Pacman since this is also their 20th Anniversary.

The new JW Anderson line is also going to be unveiled on the 14th. Much of the clothes will reflect British architecture, the rustic flare and they're keeping it very minimalist. It's going to be functional, but won't stay plain earthy. They'll be doing colors and color blocking, a bit more modern than usual. The release will have 12 pieces for women, 8 for men and 2 accessories. You can visit their flagship store in Glorietta 5 or SM Megamall if you want first dibs on the 14th, you can also visit their website https://www.uniqlo.com/ph/en/contents/collaboration/jwanderson/22fw/ to see the whole line.

The holidays are near, you might want to spruce up that wardrobe of yours since it's going to be a little nippy.

A Decade of UNIQLO in the Philippines

Had so much fun yesterday at the UNIQLO Flagship store in Glorietta 5 in Makati City. Press, Vloggers, Bloggers and Influencers were treated to first dibs on how they celebrate 10 successful years in the Philippines. While we were there, I was one of the few people who got to join games as they asked hints of the new collection they're releasing to commemorate the occasion.

Their thrust is having a UT collection that's ICONIC. They collaborated with brands that have been in the lives of Filipinos, because of course, they are LIFEWEAR. They then announced that the THE BRANDS UT PILIPINAS include JOLLIBEE, SAN MIGUEL BEER, NATIONAL BOOKSTORE and SELECTA. Much of them had the official logos of these brands, Jollibee had the bee logo in the front left side, San Miguel Beer had the San Miguel Pale Pilsen label on the black shirts. The one for National Bookstore had pockets with the classic red and white stripes design of the old National Bookstore logo. Then Selecta was a bit more colorful putting the actual Selecta trike with words TENENENN a couple times, a thing that these machines play when they're out on the streets and getting kids sweet treats these days! Which one takes your fancy?

Thanks to Myke Soon of MixofEverythingLifestyleBlog for the shots!

They are also doing a lot of promos using the Uniqlo app so make sure you download that as well. They have showed me a few CSR projects they do with re-used fabric from cuts made on alterations of jeans in the store. They sell them to local women who sew and buy the product back as bags, they were awesome looking! So really, there's no waste happening with this clothing brand.

Thank you to the good people from UNIQLO whom we were able to spend our afternoon with. I like the new UT shirts you came out with as you celebrate 10 years in the country, that's no small feat! Congratulations!

UNIQLO 2022 Spring Summer Collection

Took a few hours in the morning for some good UNIQLO time as they showcased their Spring Summer Collection for 2022. With all the pandemic things happening, I could have sworn this wouldn't have happened.

What's good is that in this launch, they delve into what matters most as far as wearing clothes is concerned, they call it "The Joys of Clothing" putting emphasis on the simple pleasures of wearing it. That sounds amazing in my books so I went in with an open mind about the colorful season they showed last Friday.

In it, they discussed Skyline (for a more cosmo urban look), Landscape (off the grid looks), Imagination (vibrant colors), Sun and Seaside (drape, natural textures, linens, comfy wear). They also interviewed a couple of people, I liked some of the things they wore.

Aside from that, I love the UT shirts with classic Mickey Mouse done by artist and fashion mogul Joshua Vides. For the women, make sure you go and seek Hana Tajima and Ines de la Fressange line, the color and style would definitely be femme centric. For those who prefer an outdoorsy work, the JW Anderson line does not disappoint especially those that have rope work and unconventional seaside inspirations this year. All of these are available in store and on the Uniqlo app, go ahead and get them today. You can also see it on the latest edition of Uniqlo Lifewear Magazine which you can pickup in store if you're around a branch. I'm going!

UNIQLO Works with Aussie Print Designer Cassie Byrnes

Oz Oz Oz! Oi Oi Oi! This is one way they say it in Australia but this time, they're taking it to clothing as fashion brand UNIQLO will launch a new collection as they work with Aussie print genius Cassie Byrnes. Known for her bold prints and superb colorful work inspired by Australia's flora and fauna.

All of these are prints that have been made especially designed for Uniqlo and they've really made good decisions to put it all on shirts and shorts. It's her first time to work with the global brand and she says "These designs are very personal to me and it has been something that I've represented with different times in my life. I've been in the design practice for over 6 years and was inspired by the prehistoric landscape of Australia, particularly the age of Gondwana which happened millions of years ago." This collection includes Sugarbush, Mesozoic Garden, Souvenir print, Lotte print, and the same ones in girls dresses. Sickening no?

I could see how this would work with Moms and daughters who would love to either pair up, or mix and match with Byrnes work. It's vivid, bold and definitely something attractive to wear on a summer day! Catch these items in all Uniqlo stores starting June 7, 2021.

UNIQLO Spring/Summer 2021

This was my first physical event. Pretty nice seeing Uniqlo clothes again, inside the store, actually. Now since it's the launch of their Spring Summer 2021 collection, I am so stoked to see several things especially clothes with materials that are light and airy. Keeping cool during this season is of course, essential especially if we're all in the Philippines where it's sunny almost 90 percent of the year.

 What's good is that they were able to put this event together even if we had to have swab tests an hour before the event and we were separated into groups, into different times so we don't crowd up like in the past. Everyone followed regulations so we're all safe. 

This year, UNIQLO came out with really nice designs for their house collections like Uniqlo U. They've got futuristic workout clothes that are light and breezy, no heavy clumped stuff, so you can still have a good workout inside your homes. Aside from that, they've got wireless bras that have shape lift so women can still feel confident anytime of the day.

 They also have recent collaborations for Uniqlo UT like UNIQLO Hana Tajima (those Japanese prints), UNIQLO Jason Polan UT (the cartoony ones), and the new one with the Louvre Museum called UNIQLO Musee du Louvre. You'll see the Mona Lisa and some iconic pieces that are associated with the museum pieces that will be printed on your favorite UT shirts

The UNIQLO Ines dela Fressange felt so lady like, while the UNIQLO JW Anderson collection have more pieces that are into the great British outdoors, and I look good in them. Well, to get you into that mood, here's a video I made from the time I went to their Glorietta 5 UNIQLO Flagship Store in Makati. Enjoy!

Now all you gotta do is order them via their app, online store, or visit the Uniqlo stores that remain open despite the pandemic. You'll look good, feel good while wearing them even at home. That's good for your mental health too. :)

Heattech for this Season: UNIQLO and JW ANDERSON Holiday Collection

 

This is the first Uniqlo and JW Anderson Holiday Collection and by the looks of it, it really depicts a cozy countryside British cottage which is the theme they were going for. The relaxed more fall winter colors is just fancy and nice for those long walk in the woods, with your wife and kids in tow, looking good at these garments. JW Anderson and Uniqlo has been doing this since 2017 and certainly, the London based designer has made this a good start so people would have it at a massive scale, because Uniqlo can dress you up easy. With their Heat Tech Technology, those cold holiday nights in Manila or your airconditioned room can be taken cared of. Just get a hot cup of cocoa and it's a done deal!

Keep your hands, feet and head warm. These pieces are available online via the Uniqlo app so go download it today. I actually have been shopping in that app and get my deliveries the next day, no joke!

It's really nice! 

UNIQLO Launches Fortnite Chapter 2 UT Collection

I've been playing this for a couple of years now and yes, I fancy all the things I can buy with VBucks because they just keep getting better each season. Albeit getting different characters each time we land, we often see those nice costumes put to use and remember how we look silly chopping off trees and shooting, saving, looting other players. These days, they've been toying with superheroes too and I'm still having a hard time building defense, enough about geeking out. I'm sure you are reading this because you LOVE Fortnite. Good news is, they're dishing out new UNIQLO UT Shirts with designs you'll absolutely go crazy about!

Just look at that! The designs all get your iconic items and gear into your UT shirt. They call em DJ Yonder, Drift, Skull Trooper (those weird soldiers you had to get rid of in quests), Peely (which I often call Bananaman), Llama (ultra nice loots!) and Robot. Most of them will have Japanese katakana script and pop colors to make them a bit more playful, quintessential UT pieces. These will be priced at Php 790 each.

These items will be available in Uniqlo stores nationwide and Uniqlo.com's website (https://www.uniqlo.com/ph/en/spl/ut-collection) so head on there and order now! You can also conveniently order them via the Uniqlo app which you can download on Google Play or the App Store. Go dive out from the bus and wear them proud! 

 

UNIQLO Fall/Winter Collection 2020

One of the world’s most loved clothing brand Uniqlo just launched their fall winter collection today. In the Philippines, they held a live stream for the event featuring the season’s best looks, bar none.   

Yes Sustainable Cities, outdoors, work and craft, and design is their call this season.   Urban landscapes, an inspiration to the sportswear they came out with today. 

Those Dry Ex pieces shown are phenomenal, perfect for working out or just an ordinary day. It stays soft and comfy, and still give you freedom for movement. Outdoors can be nice with their parkas, ultra stretch shorts modeled by Pia Wurtzbach.   

Work and Craft pieces are modular, easy to layer, dry stretch easy shorts, draped shirts, dry piqued polo shirts, light trench coats and jersey relaxed jackets are all neat, the flannel shirts are soft, which can be used for everyday wear. They have soft satin material, tapered fit, shows off your figure in the right places. Smart pants, stylish all the time, but never forgets comfort. They also have 2 way stretch that makes movement effortless, kick every a$$ when you need to, wherever.   Design, which are all inspired by architecture, fashion. They have pieces like Georgette Sleeved blouses, wrinkle resistant dresses that can be worn in formal or any occasion. Made of materials that are soft and comfy, they also have ankle pants, marino fabric used for shirts, so you feel fresh all day. Lifewear is evolving.    

Uniqlo U, is all simplified wardrobe. Cristophe Lamiere did U Long Sleeve Shirts, Hana Tajima also made clothing that adapts to women’s bodies. Classy, very feminine, still using fall winter colors. The Ines de la Fressange line on the other hand had some really cool looking coats, extra fine merino strapped clothes, which you can layer in cold to nippy weather, but still remain the woman you are. They also do sustainable products and put technology on textile, even put rinsing water recycling on the Zongzhan Yida pieces and their other lines, that’s fine. Sustainable cities with lifewear, their motto.  

Airism is as usual, it’s basic, smooth and comfortable. Hot sun, freezing air, there won’t be anything that these line of clothing can’t handle. People are working, hot outside and yes they do perspire, this just releases the heat. Those drastic temperature changes won’t stand a chance with it. They also have bra camisoles, keep you cool and dry for those sunny days. The men can have the Airism polo shirts, enjoy the cool to the touch fabric that is also present in the new - more oversized shirts, they have too.
