Prepare for a winter style sensation as Uniqlo, the renowned Fast Retailing chain, teams up with luxury British label Anya Hindmarch for an exclusive collaboration set to launch on November 23. Shifting from Hindmarch’s signature bags, this collaboration focuses on knitwear, infused with a captivating key motif that unmistakably ties the collection to the enchanting world of Anya Hindmarch.
Described by Uniqlo as a brand championing creativity and craftsmanship with a touch of fun, this capsule collection reimagines Uniqlo’s knitwear through artfully deconstructed details, overseen by the iconic eyes synonymous with the Hindmarch brand.
In practical terms, the collection features crew neck lambswool sweaters (£34.90) in lively shades of orange, green, navy, and light grey. Beyond their apparent simplicity, these sweaters reveal meticulous details, including a contrast-tone single cuff, contrast color ‘darning’ at the neckline, a sleeve patch, and the whimsical cartoon eyes reminiscent of Anya Hindmarch’s iconic bags.
Labels proudly display both brand names, accompanied by the instantly recognizable embroidered Hindmarch bow, adding a touch of sophistication to each piece.
Expanding beyond knitwear, the collection includes Heattech beanies, scarves, and gloves in matching colors, all adorned with the playful eyes and darning details. For those desiring the classic Anya Hindmarch bag experience, a simple yet stylish packable bag crafted from recycled polyester is available, complete with a clip-on purse. Priced at £19.90, this versatile bag comes in green and black.
Yukihiro Katsuta, Group Senior Executive Officer at Fast Retailing, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, «The exceptional creativity and modern craftsmanship of Anya Hindmarch, along with its philosophy of valuing customers, fits well with the Uniqlo approach to clothes-making. The infusion of its trademark humor into Uniqlo essential items creates an exciting new collection of LifeWear that we hope will warm the body and mind this holiday season.» Embrace the winter season with style and whimsy through Uniqlo x Anya Hindmarch—where creativity meets comfort.
