Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today celebrates visual art and fashion as a canvas for creativity with its latest UT graphic tees and the UTme! customization service. 

In time for National Arts Month this February, UNIQLO unveils its art-themed UT collection, which will be showcased at Art Fair Philippines 2025—the country’s premier platform for modern and contemporary visual art.

UNIQLO brings its latest UT collection to this year’s Art Fair Philippines, running from February 21 to 23 at Ayala Triangle Gardens in Makati City.

UNIQLO UT is UNIQLO’s graphic T-shirt line, featuring designs inspired by pop culture, art, and iconic brands.

Launched in 2003, it offers collaborations with artists, museums, and franchises like Disney, Pokémon, and MoMA, turning fashion into a form of self-expression.

The newest 2025 Spring Summer UT collection introduces an exciting array of designs inspired by 20th-century artistic legends, including Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso. This marks the first-ever collaboration between the two iconic artists, celebrated for their revolutionary contributions to modern art. Matisse, known for his bold use of vibrant colors, and Picasso, the Spanish master who co-founded Cubism, are now immortalized on UNIQLO’s iconic UT apparel.

In addition to the Matisse and Picasso collaborations, the line-up also highlights exclusive partnerships with renowned art institutions. Among them is a tribute to the Museum of Fine Arts Boston’s Ukiyo-e collection, which features intricate Japanese color woodblock prints from the late Edo period. The collection further includes designs created in partnership with Tate, the UK-based family of art galleries, and The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, showcasing modern interpretations of iconic works from MoMA’s extensive collection.

Photography also takes center stage with designs from MAGNUM PHOTOS, curated by renowned photographer Coco Capitán, as well as a unique selection of cat photographs.

In addition, Picasso lends to the PEACE FOR ALL Charity T-Shirt Collection through a special design to add to the project’s list of esteemed collaborators. Proceeds from the sale of this print go towards UNIQLO’s peace building efforts globally with their three partner organizations: Save the Children, Plan International and UNHCR.

The new UT collection celebrates art, culture, and creativity, offering a wearable tribute to the masters of artistic expression.
