Ines de la Fressange collaborates with Uniqlo for autumn 2014

— by Alyson Walsh

Good news, for those of us who missed out the first time round, Ines de la Fressange and Uniqlo are collaborating again for autumn 2014. Prepare to be charmed by another wave of Parisian Tomboy Chic, one that comes in a jaunty flat tweed cap.

There are slim trousers and tweeds and layered-up patterned shirts. The London press preview was a very small affair, while over in Paris there was a big fandango to celebrate the opening of the new Uniqlo Marais store. Avec Ines, of course. I’m hoping Uniqlo will Eurostar her over for the UK autumn launch, it’s what the public want. And I’m determined to get my hands on at least one of the patterned shirts, they’re the highlight of the collection in my opinion. I ventured into Uniqlo to buy one when we were in Paris, but those clever femmes d’un certain age had got there first:

But…a second drop of the IdlF spring collection means there are still a few plain cotton shirts available online:

Cotton lawn shirt, £19.90, available HERE. And denim shirt, £29.90, available HERE.

Did you buy anything from the spring collection? And what do you think of autumn?
