Uniqlo launching new collection in collaboration with Louvre museum on Sep 27

Uniqlo’s collaboration with the Louvre museum in Paris will see its latest collection launch in Singapore on Sep 27.

The UNIQLO x LOUVRE collection will feature t-shirts, sweatshirts and tote bags adorned with artworks from the museum such as the Mona Lisa, Venus of Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace among others.

The full collection will be available at Uniqlo Orchard Central Global Flagship, ION Orchard, VivoCity as well as Uniqlo’s website. Parts of the collection will also be available in other stores.

The t-shirts and sweatshirts, which have four different designs for men and women, cost $19.90 and $29.90 respectively.

The tote bags also come in four designs in medium or large sizes, costing $5.90 each.

The men’s line was designed by Peter Saville. The men’s t-shirts and bags feature an identifying number in its design, which corresponds to the artwork’s identifying number in the Louvre museum – which the legendary British designer and art director used as a start point to create the collection.

The women’s line meanwhile features the graphics from Grande Odalisque and the Psyche Revived sculpture, which have been arranged with floral motifs.

Uniqlo started a four-year partnership with the Louvre museum from this year and plans to release more items to its Louvre collection through to 2024.

The first Uniqlo Louvre collection was released in February this year.
