UNIQLO U returns with a simplified wardrobe for uncertain times

Christophe Lemaire’s seasonal line of “Future LifeWear Essentials,” Uniqlo U, has returned for Fall/Winter 2020. Designed in Paris, Uniqlo U aims to provide a modern wardrobe using innovative materials. As we’ve previously mentioned in past seasons, the U line has a slightly futuristic and minimalistic feel to its clothing and accessories, quite similar to (but not as modern in their design as) COS. Their new collection is available in stores across Canada and online today.
