FRENCH model and muse Ines de la Fressange is teaming up with Uniqlo to design a collection, launching in March next year. The womenswear range will incorporate signatures of Parisian style.

"We talked regularly with Ines and exchanged views on a number of subjects including fabrics, design, and fitting," said Uniqlo design director Naoki Takizawa. "Ines's own lifestyle and approach to fashion closely mirror [Uniqlo's], and I am very pleased to be launching the new line that we have created together."

The Japanese high-street chain has also named hip-hop producer and the founder of street label A Bathing Ape, Nigo, as the creative director of its UT T-shirts line. Other high-profile names to have worked with Uniqlo include Jil Sander, Celia Birtwell, Lulu Guinness and Orla Kiely.
