Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today announces that it will launch the 2024 Spring/Summer UNIQLO and JW ANDERSON collection beginning on Friday, April 19. This latest collaboration line was inspired by mid-century British craftsmanship and its longstanding focus on both materials and practicality. 24SS combines the thoughtfulness of UNIQLO LifeWear, designed with life’s needs in mind, with the playful spirit of JW ANDERSON.
Commenting on the collection, designer Jonathan Anderson said that, “For this season we drew inspiration from the 1940s through 1960s Britain to showcase garment craftsmanship and durability.”
A homage to mid-century artistry
Women’s knit polo shirts, crew-neck sweaters, and seersucker dresses in simple, bold primary colours recall the work of traditional British furniture designs. The stylishly rough, washed-out men’s Dry Pique T-Shirt offers a stunning graphic texture inspired by textile craftsmen.
Featuring fabrics that enhance comfort
The women’s linen-blend shirts feel smooth and feature crafted stitching and embroidery accents. The Cotton Sheer Voluminous Blouse is crafted from a moderately sheer cotton and features a silhouette with a bow and cuffs. The men’s cotton jacket is crafted for a relaxed fit. This item together with unisex baker pants exhibit natural textures, allowing for stylish coordination as a complementary ensemble.
The full lineup will be available at selected stores and through uniqlo.com from 19th April.
