German luxury fashion designer Jil Sander<\/b> is teaming up with Japan\u2019s no-frills clothing retailer Uniqlo<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Sander<\/b>, best known for her minimalist creations for executive women \u2013 said she will now oversee men\u2019s and women\u2019s apparel at Uniqlo.<\/p>\n
Sander<\/b>, whose eponymous fashion label was bought last year by Japan\u2019s Onward Holdings Corp, will play a creative advisory role at Uniqlo, Fast Retailing officials said.<\/p>\n
The Japanese retail operator hopes the move will further boost Uniqlo\u2019s global recognition, which has bucked the recession under the leadership of Forbes-listed chairman Tadashi Yanai<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Sander left her label after it was bought by Italian luxury goods group Prada. London-based investment fund Change Capital acquired the company in 2006 and last year sold it to Onward.<\/p>\n
Looks like Uniqlo is trying to compete with H&M and Target. I love Jil Sander. I’m looking forward to finding some great pieces beginning in the fall.
