Uniqlo has offered up some truly excellent collaborations over the years, joining forces with the likes of JW Anderson, Jil Sander, Marni and Clare Waight Keller to create fashion-forward twists on their much-loved everyday basics. One of the Japanese brand's most hotly anticipated of all time, however, was undoubtedly its capsule collection with Anya Hindmarch.
Released just over a year ago, the Anya Hindmarch x Uniqlo collab saw the brand's knitwear classics given a playful twist courtesy of the iconic British designer—and sell out in record time. Think brightly coloured woollen jumpers, butter-soft cashmere turtlenecks and chunky scarves and hats, all embroidered with Anya's signature googly eyes for an added burst of joy. Still today, said pieces are hot property on resale sites and sell for significantly more than their original RRP, while also remaining a proud winter wardrobe staple for those fortunate (read: fast) enough to have copped them the first time around.

It's cause for all-round celebration, then, that today Uniqlo has announced it will team up with Anya Hindmarch once again for a second limited-edition collection, just in time for cosy season.
"I’ve loved collaborating with Uniqlo again, working with their iconic knits and outerwear," said Hindmarch in a press release. "Once again, we’ve played with their silhouettes; deconstructing and then rebuilding them with darning stitches, knitted-in patches, and unexpected details, creating special designs, always with a touch of fun."

We've had a sneak preview of the capsule and can confirm that it's just as excellent—if not even better—than the last.

You can see the full lookbook of items here.
There might still be a few weeks to go until the collection drops, but we've already nailed down our wish list of the best items to shop. Well, if we learned anything from last time, it's that it definitely pays to be prepared ...
