UNIQLO IN MANILA

At least this fashion rumor is true. Yes, the Japanese brand that creates great basics as "component wear" is finally opening it's massive 1,500 square meter flagship store in the Mall of Asia. Don't panic though because it's not until June. And I'm pretty sure I'll be updating you guys when it's close to launching.

I'm psyched that they're here because I really swear by their button-downs.. Crisp, tailored and non crease! Rigid collars that keep their shape and buttons that stay firmly in place. I hate it when poor construction/loose thread result in lost buttons. Argh. But yeah, Uniqlo's version is pretty much my favorite. Doesn't even matter that I get it from the mens section. They're also bringing in their UT (Uniqlo Tees) line, which always has a great roster of collabs. The last one I bought was in collaboration with MoMA curated artists. Pa-culture. Heeh.
