LOTC: Designers Invitation Project – Uniqlo and Costello Tagliapietra, Charlotte Ronson & Vena Cava

April 21, 2011

Uniqlo is here again in another edition of Luxing it on the Cheap (LOTC).  It is partnering with nine designers this year as part of its Designers Invitation Project.  The designers are:  Costello Tagliapietra, Charlotte Ronson, Vena Cava, Double Standard Clothing, Nine, Suzuki Takayuki, Theatre Products, Tiny Dinosaur and Zechia.  Jersey and knit is prevalent and Charlotte Ronson’s themes evoke springtime nautical themes while Costello continues to demonstrate great draping.
Each designer collection is released at a different time this spring season.  Costello will be introduced first and will hit stores April 21st.  The best part?  Each piece in the collection is $29.99.  This is another reason to stop by and love Uniqlo – they are one of my favorite fast fashion retailers and they’re extremely generous too).


Here are some of my favorite pieces from the first trio of designers: Costello Tagliapietra (1,2), Charlotte Ronson (3,4) & Vena Cava (5,6).


I am LOVING the nautical motif!

    These dresses are gorgeous – the upper 2 espesh. Wow

    And re: the Gap wideleg: I’m 5’3” and got the regular, but do wear them with a platform clog that’s probably 4 inches.

    Hope that helps – they are great pants – a superb find!
