The Uniqlo X Lemaire Collection Is Selling Out

by Eliza Florendo

Uniqlo is known for their clean, simple take on basics on a budget, and for collaborations with Balmain, Carine Roitfeld, and even Disney. But their newest collaboration, the Uniqlo x Lemaire collection, is the one to watch out for: Since its launch on Friday, the collection online has almost been sold out, Fashionista reports.

Walk into a New York City Uniqlo, and the effect is the same: Lines of people waiting, pieces have been mulled over, and you'd be lucky to come away with an item. I guess I'm waiting for the next shipment! While this collaboration is one that's been more under the radar, it's one that serious fashion lovers have been waiting for. Previewed earlier this summer, this collection full of comfy-chic pieces was long-anticipated by fans of Christopher Lemaire. I mean, gorgeous, clean, luxurious basics on a budget? Yeah, people were excited.

Then, shortly after in August, Uniqlo released select images from the collection, and the fashion world went wild. The minimalist looks got people hyped, especially the sleek sweaters and coats, retailing between $40-$200. So it comes as no surprise that it's almost completely sold out after its first weekend out. And for good reason — These pieces will elevate your wardrobe to Parisian levels. Below, check out the pieces we just have to have from what's left in stock. Hurry — these won't last long!

This is what Lemaire does best: turning the most comfortable pieces into a chic item that will look just as good as it feels. Case in point: This robe coat that will be living on your body all fall and winter long.

2.This Not-So-Common Button Up

Love this tunic-style top that's long enough to wear with leggings. That's what I call ultimate comfort.

3. These Pajama-Comfy Pants

Women Lemaire Rayon Wide Leg Pant, $49.90, uniqlo.com

The votes are in, and the wide leg trend is here to stay! And thank God for that — the looser, the better in my book.

4. This Minimalist Coat

I'm obsessed with this silhouette that's so chic, it's painful. Plus, the removable hood makes it perfect for rainy and dry, crisp fall days.

5. This Less-Is-More Skirt

Break these out with your favorite white tennis shoe for a casual weekend day, or dress them up with a pair of heels for work. Either way, it's guaranteed to make your outfit 10/10.

6. The Comfiest Sweater Ever

Did you say cashmere? Yep, I'm in. This cropped sweater would pair perfectly with a crisp button up underneath.

7. These Gauchos — Yep, Gauchos

Yes, gauchos are back, but ditch the stretchy jersey material and say hello to wool and cashmere.
