Global apparel retailer UNIQLO has officially announced the launch of "Modernity in Motion," the latest collection from its special line, UNIQLO : C. Designed by UNIQLO Creative Director, renowned British born fashion designer Clare Waight Keller, this collection is set to redefine seasonal wardrobes by seamlessly blending formal elegance with casual comfort. It combines sophisticated tailoring with practical, functional fabrics, aiming for a versatile, all-season appeal.　

Clare Waight Keller said: “This collection embodies the spirit of movement and function in wardrobe essentials. I focused on reflecting technical principles in modern silhouettes. This season’s innovation is the incorporation of PUFFTECH - a cutting-edge technology that allows for incredible performance of warmth in an ultra-light weight jacket with a completely seam free finish. Creatively it has allowed me to design a truly minimalist look, combining both volume and lightness in a modern hoodie jacket with all the functionality that UNIQLO excels in. For womenswear, the collection also explores tailoring in the softest of modern technical tweeds to create effortless clothing mixed with seasonal favorites in HEATTECH and cashmere, expressed through a jewel tone palette. This collection exemplifies the unique timeless style of UNIQLO : C.”

The initial release kicks off by expanding the UNIQLO : C’s signature sweatshirt line with a fresh new crewneck style. For women, highlights include a chic cropped cocoon shirt and culotte in a contemporary midi length, promising effortless comfort from late summer into the cooler months. 

Fall/Winter Essentials: Advanced Warmth and Performance

The second phase of the collection delves deeper into winter essentials. For the first time ever, UNIQLO introduces HEATTECH Cashmere Blend for men, alongside elevated outerwear and luxurious cashmere knitwear. These pieces are thoughtfully designed as new Fall/Winter classics, promising both superior comfort and elegant style.

Most warmth ever at this thinness – HEATTECH Cashmere Blend for men

HEATTECH Cashmere Blend is a perfect harmony of natural materials and HEATTECH functionality. The men’s line includes two types, crewneck and turtleneck. For women, the lineup introduces a fresh palette of jewel tones, featuring sophisticated shades like sand, forest green, navy, and burgundy.

A seamless blend of sophisticated design and functional materials

New to the lineup are jackets, hoodies, coats made with cutting-edge PUFFTECH material from Toray.* With the same heat retention as down, these items are also perfect for layering. While simple in design, carefully tailored technical pieces such as BLOCKTECH outerwear with excellent waterproof, windproof, and moisture permeability properties are making them indispensable for diverse everyday activities.

*Jointly developed by UNIQLO and Toray, PUFFTECH (combination of “puffy” and “technology”) outerwear is made with innovative, high-performance synthetic insulation as an alternative to natural down.
