JW Anderson Reworks British Classics for FW20 UNIQLO Collection
Themed around “A Day in London.”
London-based designer Jonathan Anderson and his JW Anderson label have continued the ongoing partnership with UNIQLO for Fall/Winter 2020. The resulting collection features references to classic British designs — including the duffle coat — with a theme of “A Day in London.”
Speaking about the collection, Anderson explained the theme, “It builds on the The Great British Outdoors theme of the Fall/Winter 2019 collection through LifeWear that reinterprets British classics in exploring London, notably through iconic checkered patterns and duffle coat styles. My design process drills down to the essence of things, and the final looks for this collection embody my personality and that of the UNIQLO brand.”
Continuing the theme, pieces throughout the collection focus on the everyday wear needed for life in the city, whether that’s for morning walks to the market or relaxed afternoons. Stand-out pieces include duffle coats, quart-zip knitwear and asymmetrical striped shirting. The collection comes in a color palette of olive, navy, charcoal grey, and “Amber.”
Take a look at the latest collection in the gallery above. All of the FW20 pieces will be available from the UNIQLO web store on October 15.
As well as working with JW Anderson, UNIQLO also recently launched its sustainability-focused “Re.UNIQLO” program.
