![]() Beautifully tailored from supple SUPIMA® cotton, there is a striking three-quarter-length shirt with dolman sleeves and a voluminous silhouette. Lightweight, technical silk blends are the highlight of the women's line-up, including a graphic dress with three-quarter sleeves, flared skirt and subtle summer parka. +J goes on to showcase an international modern uniform with purpose and meaning. That gives a nice, cool contrast with ivory, caramel, gray and khaki. Colors reflect a chromatic color palette of the northern lights while indigo and ink reflect the summer night. A selection of natural materials and comfortable blends define effortless styles with luxurious textures. Thoughtful design impregnates essential pieces with versatility and practicality for outdoor living. "A form of purity that reminds us of innovation and a fresh start."Ĭontrolled sculptural customization emphasizes movement, lightness and space. “The overarching idea is sophistication,” says Ms. We see sharp silhouettes minimized to their purest form as the main feature of the current collection. This season's + J Spring / Summer collection gives you exactly the feeling of the light spring we've all longed for. Now that we are slowly rising from the dark winter, it is time to enjoy spring. The designer brings her distinctive, modern signature to this exceptional line for both men and women. The collection builds on the popular return of UNIQLO's collaboration with legendary designer Jil Sander last season. The +J line sells out quickly and Uniqlo is limiting the number of items you’re allowed to purchase online.International retailer UNIQLO today announced that it will launch the + J Spring / Summer 2021 collection on March 25. You’ll need to move fast if you want to acquire some of these pieces. With Uniqlo, it’s always tempting to wait for their incredible markdowns. And these aren’t even the ones that are in my own shopping cart. There’s so much good here that it’s hard to pick but standouts include an over-sized bomber jacket in navy for $129.90 (if you don’t already own a bomber, here’s your chance), pleated tapered pants in a variety of easy to match colors for $59.90, or a single-breasted over-sized coat for $179.90. They cost a tiny bit more than Uniqlo’s usual fare but that’s to be expected for the extra attention paid to design details and the introduction of fabrics like merino wool and silk-cotton blends.Īs usual, you’ll find elements of what +J calls the “modern uniform,” everything from casual knitwear and t-shirts to outerwear and even a few tailored pieces. After what we’ve all been through in the last year or so, we could use some regeneration and optimism! The overall idea is sophistication, a kind of purity that lets us think of regeneration and a fresh start.” Spring is here and there’s no better way to dress for it than this collection. I continue to look for quality, also in textile innovation. The colors are beautiful but understated, classy, and of great clarity. In Uniqlo’s Lifewear, Sander says, “In the +J 2021 Spring & Summer collection, I am aiming for quiet optimism. ![]() They are breezy and minimalistic cut to perfection, and with an unusual color palette for Spring combining Sander’s usual fondness for neutrals in black, white, gray, and navy offset by a particularly fetching bright shade of blue and a few pastels. ![]() The clothes, as to be expected, are fantastic. Over a decade since the first collaboration, this is the second time the duo have worked together since they reunited late last year (during the pandemic no less!). Note, that this is the actual Jil Sander herself and not her namesake brand which she is no longer associated with. Today’s drop of Uniqlo +J SS21 is the latest of the celebrated collaborations between my favorite fast-fashion retailer and noted German designer Jil Sander. ![]()
