Uniqlo X JW Anderson Spring/Summer 2018

Feel like refreshing your summer wardrobe? Well, get in line, because the next installment of Uniqlo X JW Anderson is about to hit stores this April 19th, Friday! Hot on the heels of their successful, Fall/Winter 2017 collection, this second installment brings back the elements we love from the start, but with more seaside romance.

Inspired by the 1950’s heyday of Britain’s Brighton Beach, this season’s Uniqlo X JW Anderson features unisex striped T-shirts, polos, dresses and bomber jackets, with a touch of nautical style. Apart from JW Anderson’s signature tailoring, especially with the ruffles and ribbons, fans can expect the same quality assurance of Uniqlo’s LifeWear commitment: top quality fabrics and superb construction, featuring top quality cotton-linen fabrics, Kaihara denim and DRY-EX.

“In the 2nd collection of the collaboration, I’m looking for this idea of ‘British Summer,’ the idea of being on the Brighton beach. Something which is very lightweight, very airy, with a lot of linen, and cotton that has a 1950’s subcultural movement. With a little bit of ease and something which is quintessential.”, notes Jonathan Anderson, founder and designer of JW Anderson.

He adds, “As a UNIQLO customer, I know exactly the quality that the brand gives to its products. I am very proud of the level of execution and the attention to details that we delivered on this new spring/summer collection.”
