Taiwanese Designer Brand UUIN Unveils Its Spring/Summer 2026 Collection “Beautiful People” and Announces Its Second Pop-Up in Harajuku, Tokyo

Taiwanese designer brand UUIN announces its Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “Beautiful People.” Following the positive reception of its first pop-up event, the brand will hold its second POP-UP event. From Friday, May 22 to Sunday, May 24, 2026, UUIN will host “UUIN POP-UP in TOKYO” at Harajuku Lolo in Tokyo’s Harajuku district. The collection is inspired by the works of Chen Chin, the first Taiwanese female painter to be selected for Japan’s Imperial Art Exhibition. It reinterprets an Eastern and serene sense of beauty through contemporary clothing. POP-UP Event Overview UUIN POP-UP in Harajuku Dates: Friday, May 22 to Sunday, May 24, 2026 Time: 12:00–19:00 Venue: Harajuku Lolo, Shibuya, Tokyo Address: Sugino Building, 3-25-11 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 150-0001 Collection Inspiration｜Reinterpreting Inner Beauty The women depicted by Chen Chin are delicate, introspective, and filled with soft elegance. Drawing inspiration from her brushwork and colors, UUIN translates the atmosphere embedded in her paintings into textiles. Using materials such as punto and jacquard, the brand elevates fashion into layered garments that resemble a single painting. In 2023, Google featured Chen Chin on its homepage to commemorate the 115th anniversary of her birth, adding a contemporary resonance to this collection. Design｜From Painting to Clothing The designs begin with sketches from Chen Chin’s 1927 work “Poppies.” Based on tones such as beige, powder white, ink black, and orange-red, which evoke the texture of pale paper, the collection recreates historical emotion and warmth. Motifs of flowers and woven patterns are also extracted from her representative works “Ensemble” and “Portrait of a Lady,” then reconstructed as textile patterns. A palette of ivory, pink, pale blue, and misty gray expresses a soft, powder-like texture that rests gently against the skin. Details such as diagonal closures, flared sleeves, and sheer layered elements create light and poetic silhouettes, giving the garments a delicate presence, as if fragrant powder were drifting across the skin. UUIN｜Full-Scale Expansion into the Japanese Market Rooted in Taiwanese local culture and island aesthetics, UUIN has successfully expanded into the Japanese market and contributes to raising awareness and appreciation of Taiwanese culture overseas. During the event period, the official website will also run a simultaneous promotion. Consumers who cannot visit the venue can access Japan-exclusive pricing through the A*COLLECTIVE JAPAN online store.
