» 4 In collaboration with Inès de la Fressange, the French fashion titan whose name is "synonymous with Parisian chic", Uniqlo has released a new line of women's clothing inspired by the 1960s French fashion, when "the ready-to-wear industry led to the collapse of the hierarchy that had been the height of long-established haute couture". The first of a three-part collection (with the second and third releasing in October and November, respectively) -- now in stores -- is dubbed La Femme 70s, which expresses the "free and open feel of the 1970s".
