JIL SANDER at UNIQLO

本日3月17日(木)記者会見が行なわれた。
デザイナーのジル・サンダー(Jil Sander)氏が勤める会社と、ユニクロ(UNIQLO)がコンサルティング契約を交わしたのだ。ん?ユニクロとジル・サンダー?(嬉、驚、そしてエキサイティングな気持ちになっただろう。)内容としては、ユニクロの商品全体のクリエイティブ ディレクター、更に特定コレクションのデザインも行ない今年の秋冬から店頭に並ぶ予定。

長いことモードスタイルのイメージが定着しているジル・サンダーと、格安で品質に厳しいユニクロとのコラボレーション。彼女が加わることでどう変化していくのか、どういったかたちで今年の秋冬登場するのかとても楽しみだ。

It was announced in a press conference in Tokyo today that Jil sander will be returning to fashion for the first time since 2004. She is taking up a role at UNIQLO! Although Sander has not been given an official title, it is understood that this will be a “design consulting agreement” that will position Jil Sander as the Creative Director for all of the men’s and women’s goods at the brand as well as creating a new line bearing Sanders’ trademark minimalist look this fall.

Jil Sander has long been famous for her minimal mode style, and UNIQLO is the best place to pick up cheap yet good quality basics, so this collaboration really makes sense and is great news.

    Hello there.
    I don’t know you see the comment since this article is rather old. I just now heard about the news, although I work for UNIQLO. lol
    I am not sure that I will still be working there by the time her first collection is launched though.
    I was pleased to hear the news. That means a Japanese giant fashion retailer as well as Japanese technology is now and to be recognised by the whole world.
    I am also the one who is looking forward to her creations among Japanese people. Roll on A/W 2009-10!
