LOTC: +J for Uniqlo Spring Summer 2011

February 1, 2011

I remember when Uniqlo launched in NYC a few years ago.  What was this edgy yet classic Japanese cool Gap presenting great options for Luxing it on the Cheap (LOTC)?  Over the years I’ve picked up a few great cashmere basics (during an awesome Black Friday sale) and have been really intrigued by their collaboration with Jil Sander.

+J for Uniqlo is Jil Sander’s ongoing collection for the company.  It embodies “pure sophisticated design, dedicated to quality and innovation” that “underlines the beauty of a personality.”  I appreciate the clean cuts, attention to detail, and almost sculptural chic lines.  It translates both the Jil Sander and Uniqlo spirit at an affordable price point.

Spring & Summer 2011 is for “modern nomads who seek the sublimes in full day light.”  The collection launched in stores Jan. 26.  I want that last silk tank top ($39.90) and all the dresses.  They are super simple yet styling.   The brighter colored dresses won’t be available until March.
Prices range from: outerwear – $149.90 – $229.90, dresses – $129.90, and knitwear – $59.90 – $229.90.  Fortunately Uniqlo is in Singapore so I’m hoping there are pieces in the store this weekend!

What do you think of this collection?

    I adore Jil Sander – how about her designs for I am Love – just exquisite. Love her clean modern lines. Still haven’t ever made it to Uniqlo – but am going to check it these pieces are online because I love so many of them!

    @quintessence – they can be viewed online but I don’t see an ability to buy them online. I would have bought one of each by now!

  • Erika February 1, 2011 at 15:04

    I love the sharp, crisp, clean lines; but overall I feel that the collection is too masculine for my taste. :/
