There’s nothing new about collaborations between fashion designers with fast fashion retailers but when it births a new fabrication technology, especially from Heattech creator Uniqlo, we should pay attention.
“The idea came from Alex,” Yukihiro Katsuta, Group Senior Vice President of Fast Retailing, who manages and leads Uniqlo’s global research and development told Her World over an interview during the collection’s global press conference in Taipei.
Developed to feel like ‘second skin’, the AIRism fabric allow wearers to enjoy camisoles and slips so smooth, light and comfortable, they almost forget they are wearing them.
Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, this new fabric is supportive but not constrictive, making it perfect for innerwear such as bras and bicycle shorts.
Comprising of a premium cotton finish and an AIRism interior, the men’s collection includes T-shirts and tank tops that are comfortable yet sufficiently thick enough to wear as innerwear and regular outerwear.
