Historia mody
Launched in 2021, this partnership integrated Maiko Kurogouchi’s design philosophy into Uniqlo's production framework. Kurogouchi, previously of Miyake Design Studio, founded her independent label in 2010. The collaboration utilized technical textiles like AIRism to create specialized innerwear. It represents a period in fashion history where the distinction between private undergarments and public attire became increasingly fluid, influenced by global shifts toward home-centric lifestyles and functional minimalism.
