Uniqlo x Ines De La Fressange Collection
Who is Ines De La Fressange?
"Born in France into an aristocratic family, Ines de la Fressange grew to be a fashion model, becoming Chanel's star model from 1983 to 1990, and the muse of designer Karl Lagerfeld. In 1989 she was chosen by the French government as the likeness for a bust of Marianne, the symbol of the French Republic.Today Ines is active as a designer, journalist, author, and fashion consultant, and in 2010 was selected as a member of L'Oréal's "Dream Team." Her book Parisian Chic has been translated into 17 languages, with more than a million copies sold worldwide.In 2013 Ines re-launched her own brand, INES DE LA FRESSANGE PARIS, and is closely involved as creative director. The luxury lifestyle brand includes a wide range of products to create a truly Parisian style, from ready-to-wear apparel to interior decorations."
During the launch, I learned this was a second collaboration with Ines as part of the Fall Winter 2014 collection. The first collaboration was Spring Summer 2014.
Though this collection definitely screams Winter and we don't have that! I still appreciate Uniqlo Philippines for bringing this collection in as most Filipinos now are into traveling and buying comfortable travel clothes perfect for the cooler weather is a bit difficult int he past! I had to rummage through my "box of winter clothes" when I used to work in China and those scream: "OUTDATED"!
During the launch, I was able to get up close and personal with the
collection and I'm glad they included European fabrics like "tweed"
which is very fashionable yet so difficult to find! Adding to the
collection are gorgeous coats, jackets and long-sleeved top that are
very fashionable yet basic at the same time. I mean who has unlimited
funds to shop for cooler weather clothing? (Not me for sure!) So I'm
glad the collection kept the basic colors that we can mix and match with
our current outfit.
I will attach the better photos for you to check out what you can expect from this collection! According to Design Director Naoki Takizawa: “Like the streets of Paris,
where novelty and beauty can be found in the constant blending of diverse
elements throughout the city’s long history, this is a collection of essential
apparel that quietly radiates through the styling. It is clothing that is
simple, but with playfulness that prompts a smile. It is clothing that brings
you back to your natural self just by wearing it. Talking with Ines, I begin to
see clothing that anticipates the next era. It then starts to overlap with
UNIQLO’s LifeWear concept."
