Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today announces that it will launch the 2024 Spring/Summer UNIQLO and JW ANDERSON collection beginning on Friday, April 19. This latest collaboration line was inspired by mid-century British craftsmanship and its longstanding focus on both materials and practicality. 24SS combines the thoughtfulness of UNIQLO LifeWear, designed with life’s needs in mind, with the playful spirit of JW ANDERSON.

Items from the new collection as worn by London-based Johannes Bosisio, painter, and Anna-Lena Krause, performance & visual artist 

Commenting on the collection, designer Jonathan Anderson said that, “For this season we drew inspiration from the 1940s through 1960s Britain to showcase garment craftsmanship and durability.”

A homage to mid-century artistry

Women’s knit polo shirts, crew-neck sweaters, and seersucker dresses in simple, bold primary colors recall the work of traditional British furniture designs. The stylishly rough, washed-out men’s Dry Pique T-Shirt offers a stunning graphic texture inspired by textile craftsmen.

Featuring fabrics that enhance comfort The women’s linen-blend shirts feel smooth and feature crafted stitching and embroidery accents. The Cotton Sheer Voluminous Blouse is crafted from a moderately sheer cotton and features a silhouette with a bow and cuffs. The men’s cotton jacket is crafted for a relaxed fit. 

This item together with unisex baker pants exhibit natural textures, allowing for stylish coordination as a complementary ensemble.

Northern Irish designer Jonathan Anderson established JW ANDERSON in 2008. At first an elaborate collection of accessories, it quickly evolved to offer ready-to-wear and attracted attention and enabled the fledgling label to show on-schedule during the 2008 London Fashion Week season. The success of this debut collection earned both critical acclaim and commercial success for Anderson, whose label is now regarded as one of London’s most innovative and forward-thinking brands. UNIQLO and JW ANDERSON first launched in 2017 Fall/Winter.
