My TOP 10 Picks to Buy from UNIQLO's 2026 Fall/Winter Collection for Modern City Living!




I recently got a first look at UNIQLO Philippines’ 2026 Fall/Winter Collection, and this season’s “Modern City Living” theme really caught my attention. The new LifeWear lineup is all about keeping up with everyday life—whether I’m heading to the mall, attending events, traveling, running errands, or simply going out with friends.




What I love about this collection is that UNIQLO continues to focus on pieces that are not only stylish but also comfortable, functional, and easy to incorporate into an everyday wardrobe. From relaxed denim and lightweight outerwear to cozy knits and versatile innerwear, there are plenty of pieces that caught my eye.


My Top Picks from the Collection

1. Baggy Barrel Leg Jeans 


 


One of the first pieces that caught my attention was the Baggy Barrel Leg Jeans. The relaxed barrel-leg silhouette gives the classic jeans a more contemporary look while keeping the outfit comfortable. I can easily imagine wearing these with a basic T-shirt and sneakers for a casual day, or dressing them up with a shirt and jacket when heading to an event.


2. EZY Wide Straight Jeans


UNIQLO's versatile Bottoms collection offers flattering silhouettes for every style, from relaxed Baggy Barrel Leg Jeans and comfortable EZY Wide Straight Jeans to the seasons genderless Culottes

For anyone who prioritizes comfort, the EZY Wide Straight Jeans are definitely worth checking out. They give you the appearance of denim while offering the comfortable feel of sweatpants. For me, this is the kind of piece that makes sense for travel and long days when I want to stay comfortable without looking too casual.


3. Harrington Jacket



The Harrington Jacket is one of those timeless outerwear pieces that can easily become a wardrobe staple. It's simple enough for everyday wear and works well as a lightweight layer. Since the Philippines doesn't always require heavy winter clothing, I like the idea of having versatile jackets that can be worn during cooler days or when traveling abroad.


4. Denim Trucker Jacket




Another classic is the Denim Trucker Jacket. Denim jackets are easy to style, and this one can be paired with everything from dresses and skirts to jeans and basic T-shirts. It's also a great layering piece for travel because it can instantly make a simple outfit look more polished.


5. Fleece Collection





UNIQLO's travel essentials Fleece, HEATTECH, and PUFFTECH offer lightweight warmth, comfort, and versatile layering for effortless travel to cooler destinations

The Fleece line is definitely something I would consider for my travels to colder destinations. The collection comes in different colors and styles for both men and women, with lightweight designs that provide warmth without feeling too heavy. If you're planning a trip somewhere with colder weather, this is one category I'd definitely check out.


6. Souffle Yarn Knits

UNIQLO's Knit collection offers everyday comfort and versatility, from cozy 100% extra-fine merino wool Soufflé Yarn Knits to refined Smooth Cotton Knits

UNIQLO's Knit collection offers everyday comfort and versatility, from cozy 100% extra-fine merino wool Soufflé Yarn Knits to refined Smooth Cotton Knits

For something cozy and elevated, the Souffle Yarn Knits are another standout. They're made from 100% extra fine merino wool, offering warmth while maintaining that refined look. These are perfect for layering and can easily transition from casual daytime outfits to something more polished.


7. Cashmere Crew Neck Sweater

The Cashmere Crew Neck Sweater, which was also styled by Matteo Guidicelli during the launch, immediately gave me that classic and sophisticated vibe. It's the kind of timeless piece that can be worn season after season, especially when traveling to colder destinations.


8. Smart Culottes


I also like the versatility of the Smart Culottes. They offer a polished silhouette while still giving you the freedom and comfort of a relaxed bottom. Solenn Heussaff's styling of the Smart Culottes showed how they can work beautifully with layered tops and outerwear.


9. Lounge & Underwear

UNIQLO's Loungewear and Innerwear collections combine stay-in comfort with versatile functionality and style designed to transition effortlessly beyond the home

The collection also includes Loungewear and Innerwear, which bring together comfort and functionality. I appreciate that UNIQLO continues to design pieces that can work at home but can also be styled for going outside. Because let's be honest—if something is comfortable enough for a stay-in day but cute enough for a quick coffee run, that's a win for me!


10. Sport Utility Wear




For those who are always moving, UNIQLO's Sport Utility Wear (SUW) brings together comfort and functionality. The pieces are designed for everyday movement, from errands and light activities to more active pursuits. This category makes sense for my lifestyle because I’m often moving from one place to another throughout the day.


More Than Just Clothes

The 2026 Fall/Winter season also marks the 10th anniversary of UNIQLO U, celebrating a decade of evolving LifeWear essentials.

There's also the upcoming UNIQLO : C Fall/Winter collection, while fans of UNIQLO Core T and UT can look forward to new designs inspired by Japan, iconic characters, and pop art, including Manga 100th, YOASOBI, Pokémon, Ukiyo-e, Peanuts, and NY POP ART.

Anne Curtis Brings Her Own Take on Modern City Style



“What I’m wearing is the Fluffy Yarn Fleece Full-Zip Jacket and underneath is the UNIQLO : C Milano Ribbed Full-Zip Cardigan, and then I have my Baggy Barrel Jeans. It’s pretty chill, relaxed, and for someone like me who gets cold easily, even in Manila, it’s perfect for me. As you can see, I’m not even sweating. It’s comfy, it’s perfect, and it’s fluffy.” ~Anne Curtis, UNIQLO’s Newest Local Celebrity Partner, Award-winning Actress and Host


One of the highlights of the launch was seeing UNIQLO's newest local celebrity partner, Anne Curtis, showcase her take on modern city dressing. Her first look combined:
  • Zip Up Short Jacket

  • Ribbed Henley Neck Long Sleeve T-Shirt

UNIQLO's Commitment to Positive Impact. Beyond the clothes, I also appreciate the initiatives connected to this season. UNIQLO Philippines is highlighting the local implementation of the global PEACE FOR ALL initiative in partnership with Plan International Pilipinas, supporting underserved Filipino youth, particularly young women.




The program aims to provide skills development, employability support, and entrepreneurship opportunities. Proceeds from purchases of the new PEACE FOR ALL collection will support the initiative, including its local program in Valenzuela City and broader efforts worldwide.




UNIQLO has also introduced Re.UNIQLO Special Artisan Patches as part of the celebration of the 70th Friendship Year between the Philippines and Japan. Created with local artisans nationwide, the patches feature elements inspired by historical landmarks, seasons, food, and other cultural references.


More Reasons to Celebrate the Collection

The season also marks the 10th anniversary of UNIQLO U, celebrating ten years of evolving LifeWear essentials, and the upcoming release of the UNIQLO: C collection for Fall/Winter. New designs influenced by pop art, Manga 100th, YOASOBI, Pokemon, Ukiyo-e, Peanuts, and NY POP ART are also anticipated by fans of UNIQLO Core T and the UT collection.




UNIQLO continues to strengthen its commitment to sustainability and community-beneficial initiatives in addition to developing new products.

UNIQLO Philippines is showcasing the first local implementation of the global PEACE FOR ALL initiative to support impoverished Filipino youth, particularly young women.  The project aims to provide people with opportunities for entrepreneurship, employability support, and skill development that can enhance their future standard of living in partnership with Plan International Pilipinas. The proceeds from every purchase of the new PEACE FOR ALL collection will support the initiative, which includes the local program in Valenzuela City and PEACE FOR ALL's larger global efforts. The program will continue to support underprivileged communities for the next three years.




Additionally, UNIQLO recently introduced the Re.UNIQLO Special Artisan Patches in honor of Japan and the Philippines' 70th anniversary of friendship. The designs, which were created in partnership with regional craftspeople across the country, feature historical sites from both nations as well as elements influenced by the seasons, cuisine, and other factors. By working with regional craftspeople to produce the patch designs, which consumers can add to their preferred UNIQLO products via the Re.UNIQLO Studio Embroidery Service, the initiative also seeks to support schools of living traditions across the country.




What makes this collection appealing to me is its versatility. UNIQLO isn't simply presenting seasonal pieces; it's creating LifeWear that can adapt to different parts of everyday life.

From city commutes and workdays to travel, errands, events, and colder destinations, the UNIQLO 2026 Fall/Winter Collection shows how fashion can be comfortable, functional, and stylish at the same time.

After seeing the collection up close, I already have a few pieces in mind for my next shopping trip!

UNIQLO’s 2025 Fall/Winter Collection Gives Modern Spin to Timeless Style

“With the theme ‘Revisiting Classic,’ this collection takes a cue from timeless style, showcasing silhouettes, colors, and patterns perfect for various lifestyles, while paying close attention to quality through our clothing technology. We want to give our customers, fresh, versatile LifeWear that’s perfect for the season because nowadays, you don’t have to sacrifice comfort to look good. Your clothes should make you feel good, too.” ~Ms. Geraldine Sia, UNIQLO Philippines Chief Operating Officer


Revisiting Classic: UNIQLO’s 2025 Fall/Winter Collection Gives Modern Spin to Timeless Style. Get elevated structure, function, and ease this season from the classics you love. It gives traditional style a chic, modern touch.   The global apparel brand hosted a media preview of the new collection at the Gallio Events Hall in Parañaque City on August 22.

The latest collection from UNIQLO, the industry leader in classic-meet-modern wardrobe essentials, combines a variety of diametrically opposed concepts to produce something new but familiar.   The 2025 F/W collection gives precision tailoring an athletic look while fusing the traditional with the functional and the masculine with the feminine.   It all comes down to enhancing simple shapes with beauty and striking a balance between opposites to produce a more fashionable assortment that also includes comfort and functionality.


Ms. Geraldine Sia, UNIQLO Philippines Chief Operating Officer



During the press preview, UNIQLO local celebrity partners Jasmine-Curtis Smith, Kianna Dy, Solenn Heusaff, and Donny Pangilinan showcased the 2025 Fall/Winter Collection's style possibilities.




In order to create a preppy look in the coveted JW Anderson Straight Jeans, Donny concentrated on layering silhouettes, colors, patterns, and materials.

"The JW Anderson Straight Jeans is all about versatility. I can wear this for work or just hanging out, thanks to its timeless design that never goes out of style.” ~Donny Pangilinan


Superstar volleyball player Kianna launched the Sport Utility Wear line, which has the main ability to transition from active to leisure wear.

“As an athlete, this is basically my daily wear. UNIQLO Sport Utility Wear  pieces offer me comfort and ease during my most active training days plus they are effortless to style too!" ~Kianna Dy


Solenn showed off the adaptability of UNIQLO apparel by fusing the satin skirt with the durable, carefree Merino Crew Neck Sweater to create a look that is both comfortable and casually stylish.

"I attest to the knit pieces of UNIQLO. As a working mom, I’m also moving a lot, so my clothes really get put to the test. But they still look good, as you can see now." ~Solenn Heussaff



Jasmine wrapped off by highlighting UNIQLO's trustworthy HEATTECH and PUFFTECH items, which are perfect for keeping toasty on the road.

"I love wearing the HEATTECH Cashmere and PUFFTECH Cropped Vest because they’re stylish and lightweight, perfect for packing. I can wear it on its own or layer it with a PUFFTECH vest, depending on how cold it is or the look I’m going for. You’ll definitely see this outfit on my socials in the months to come." ~Jasmine Curtis-Smith


UNIQLO celebrity partners Solenn Heussaff, Donny Pangilinan, Kianna Dy, and Jasmine Curtis-Smith, together with UNIQLO representatives, showcase the styling versatility of the 2025 Fall Winter Collection


The UNIQLO 2025 Fall/Winter collection includes a number of important collaborations to keep an eye on in addition to chic and modern pieces from a range of categories.

The new collection's most notable silhouette for the season is the JW ANDERSON Straight Jeans.   It is made of comfortable 100% cotton and has a vintage look and a nice straight fit.   This season, the JW ANDERSON Straight Jeans come in two new colors—gray for men and deep blue for women—that complement any ensemble.   Donny is the biggest fan of this style adaptability.






Several products from Sport Utility Wear are also ideal investments during these cold months. No matter where you go, the portable UV protection parka will keep you cool, dry, and protected from the sun. In the meantime, the AIRism Bra Sleeveless Top is the perfect top or inner in its current shape thanks to a revised neckline and length for a more streamlined fit and maximum versatility. The Sport Utility Wear collection provides additional vital advantages in addition to AIRism and UV Protection. This incorporates DRY-EX technology, which keeps wearers dry at all times, and the Ultra Stretch feature, which makes movement exceedingly simple.






Several alternatives are available in the UNIQLO 2025 Fall/Winter collection to provide comfort and style when traveling to colder regions this season. The distinctive yarn used to make the Washable Milano Ribbed Sweater by UNIQLO gives it a soft yet bouncy feel and sets this fashionable piece apart from other knitwear.   Its tight-knit weave also addresses the main issue with knitwear, which is its machine-washability and durability.






The 2025 Fall/Winter collection then offers a number of UNIQLO HEATTECH items that will keep you warm, comfortable, and stylish—even in the face of cold weather.   The HEATTECH Extra Warm Cashmere Blend T for women is made with a 9% cashmere blend yarn, which makes it luxuriously soft and fluffy while fitting easily by molding to the body.   In contrast, the yarn used in the men's HEATTECH Cashmere Blend Crew Neck is about half as thin as that used in cashmere sweaters, offering the same degree of comfort as standard Extra Warm HEATTECH while weighing about 70% less.
