Uniqlo has rolled out its latest Linen Collection in the Philippines, featuring a variety of summer-ready pieces made from premium linen, linen blends, and cotton-linen fabrics, as part of its broader LifeWear line aimed at providing everyday comfort and functionality.
Designed for hot and humid climates, the new collection includes breathable garments crafted from natural flax fibers. The brand said its linen products are built to offer water absorption and quick-drying properties while remaining durable and softening over time with use.
The lineup includes three categories: Premium Linen, made of 100 percent European Linen Flax; Linen Blend, which combines 30 percent linen with 70 percent rayon to reduce wrinkling and offer a smoother drape; and Cotton Linen, composed of 30 percent linen and 70 percent cotton, for a more structured feel. Uniqlo stated that the varied fabric compositions aim to cater to different preferences for daily wear.
The collection is now available in Uniqlo stores nationwide and through its website. The brand continues to promote its LifeWear concept, which emphasizes simplicity, quality, and longevity, with garments intended to serve as versatile wardrobe essentials.
Uniqlo is operated by Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based global retail group that posted sales of approximately 3.1 trillion yen (US $21.39 billion) in the fiscal year ending Aug. 31, 2024. The yen-to-dollar figure is based on an exchange rate of 144.9 yen per US dollar.
Fast Retailing is one of the world’s largest apparel companies and owns eight brands, including GU, Theory, PLST, Comptoir des Cotonniers, Princesse tam.tam, J Brand, and Helmut Lang. Uniqlo remains the group’s flagship brand and Japan’s largest specialty retailer.
