Global apparel retailer UNIQLO announces the launch of a new collaboration with Danish womenswear designer Cecilie Bahnsen, a brand that is attracting global attention for its uniquely feminine and romantic style, presenting womenswear through a contemporary yet timeless lens for everyday wear. Based on the concept of “Shapes of Poetry”, the 2026 Spring/Summer collection combines Cecilie Bahnsen’s elevated design and craftsmanship with the distinctive UNIQLO commitment to comfort and materials. 

Commenting on the collection, Cecilie Bahnsen said,

“I’m so happy to be collaborating with UNIQLO for the first time. I’ve always designed pieces to be lived in, worn and cherished every day, just as all UNIQLO LifeWear embodies.I’m very excited to be able to share that with so many women and girls around the world through this collection. Working with Louise & Maria Thornfeldt on the campaign has felt extremely special; they so naturally embody the sisterhood at the heart of Cecilie Bahnsen and everything we hoped this collection could express.”

Yukihiro Katsuta, Fast Retailing Group Senior Executive Officer and Head of R&D for UNIQLO commented,

“Around the time UNIQLO opened its first store in Denmark in Copenhagen in 2019, I had an opportunity to meet Cecilie by chance. I was immediately drawn to her approach to craftsmanship and hoped that one day we might have the opportunity to create something together. Seven years on, that long standing connection has finally come to fruition in the form of this collaboration. This collection reinterprets the warmth and handcrafted sensibility of Cecilie Bahnsen through a distinctly UNIQLO perspective.”

Modern femininity for everyday life

The essence of Cecilie Bahnsen is expressed through iconic floral motifs, and voluminous sleeves with frills and shirring. The lineup of dresses, tops, and skirts with standout design details throughout can be worn lightly as single pieces with beautiful silhouettes, or enjoyed in matching sets. Special attention has been paid to the comfort of every item, such as by using high-quality cotton and elastic materials.

Cecilie Bahnsen‘s first line for girls, made possible through this collaboration

As a mother herself, Cecilie has had a long fascination with childrenswear, which comes to life in a thoughtfully considered girls’ line. The girls’ line she created for this collection includes dresses, T-shirts, and skorts as a continuation of the adult styles and can be paired together as a matching moment. Combining a cute design with everyday comfort, the skort features an adjustable waist and practical pockets on both sides.”
