“Form Follows Function” expresses the design principle of modernism that arose in the early 20th century. Things with superior function have an efficient beauty. The reverse is also true. Function and beauty are closely connected in a way that cannot be separated. While this phrase remains just as fresh a century later, UNIQLO is examining it in a new light in the Fall/Winter 2019 season.
The required function changes moment to moment according to the era and setting. Rediscover workwear to move seamlessly between work and play. Make the inspiration that comes from creative design an everyday occurrence.
The form of apparel evolves together with diversifying lifestyles, transforming into a more comfortable silhouette.
NEW FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION
UNIQLO is taking these new forms that fit with the times and synchronizing them with the spirit of LifeWear, enhancing them to create new designs that cross the boundaries of generation and gender.
UNIQLO makes the everyday lives of people more comfortable, warm, and happy. Cold weather is fast approaching. Open the door to a new standard.
OUTERWEAR
Stylish and warm take the lead in dressing well
“Volume” and “hybrid” are the keywords this season. Relaxed sizing and light, fluffy silhouettes are emerging as the trends this fall/winter season. UNIQLO is focusing on “volume” and “hybrid” to add excitement and warmth to this year’s stylings. The main items are Ultra Light Down, with a matte texture suitable for wear around town, and the Hybrid Down Series, incorporating a perfect balance of mobility and warmth. The smart look of this outerwear, even when worn over heavy cotton hoodies or thick knits, gives a light touch to generally dull winter styles. The broad lineup also includes outerwear that will make you look forward to cold days, such as jackets and coats for in-between seasons, as well as Blocktech and Seamless Down.
FLEECE
Fleece advances to a new stage
Launched in 1994, UNIQLO is celebrating 25 years of fleece this year. Light and warm, and available in a wide variety of colors, fleece works well as a middle layer with outerwear, and is now an essential part of the fall/winter wardrobe. In recent years fleece has also become increasingly essential from an ecological standpoint, incorporated in fashion as an alternative to real fur. The status of fleece continues to grow as a new standard item for fall/winter, and as a next-generation fashion item.
KNITWEAR
Comfort you will want to wear every day
Quality, refined, relaxed. “Quality” and “refined” are the essential keywords for UNIQLO knitwear and its neatly relaxed style.

This style is emerging as the new standard to enhance individuality, becoming the key silhouette for the season’s look.
Curve pants for women, regular fit for men. In women’s bottoms, the featured item exemplifying this new silhouette is curve pants, with a wide bottom fitted around the hips to the top of the leg, and a gentle curve that gives an extended, sharp look down the leg. In men’s items, regular fit bottoms in sync with the current relaxed style. The slightly deeper rise and relaxed tapered silhouette creates a clean impression.
LOUNGE WEAR
