As his latest Uniqlo U collection arrives in stores, French designer Christophe Lemaire defines his conception of ‘modern dressing’ – a modular wardrobe of reconsidered archetypes that are built to last
As his latest Uniqlo U collection arrives in stores, French designer Christophe Lemaire defines his conception of ‘modern dressing’ – a modular wardrobe of reconsidered archetypes that are built to lastFrench designer Christophe Lemaire has never sought a viral moment. He isn’t seduced by ephemeral trends. He does not create clothing with Instagram at the forefront of his mind.
‘We very much work around the idea of archetypes,’ he says. ‘The classics – the pieces that you need, that are proven. Improving them, and bringing modernity in the cut, in the details, in the colours.’ As such, items like the parka, the hoodie, the lambswool sweater, and various workwear-inspired silhouettes are revisited season on season, in a process which Lemaire calls ‘refinement’. ‘But you also have to be careful not to become sterile.
His latest collection – A/W 2022 – launched in stores earlier this month; as is usual with Lemaire’s Uniqlo U drops, several of the garments have entirely sold out online already . This season, Lemaire has formalised some ‘genderless’ pieces – though most of the pieces in previous collections could already be exchanged between genders – a nod to what he calls the ‘reality of society today’.
