What's hot? Colors, stripes, squares!

MANILA, Philippines - United Colors of Benetton’s kaleidoscope of signature brights and cheerful prints bear all the trendsetting elements of the season: snazzy stripes, pretty florals, smart checks, in a rainbow cascade of colors — from classic reds, whites, and blues, to dreamy pinks and lilacs, to deep, earthy tones like burnt orange and brick.

The brand’s latest collection takes all the seasonal style musts and gives them the patented, UCB happy twist. Soak in the summer sun in crisp shirts and button-downs in cool solids. Put a spring in your summer step with fun, fashion pieces like scarf blouses and mini bibs and braces. Feel ultra-feminine in the summer breeze in silk tulip miniskirts or dresses of lace-like broderie anglaise. Be the slickest guy-about-town in multi-colored, ’50s-inspired knit shirts.

UCB puts a gleeful spin on the season’s hottest trends, adapting flash style to a classic, maximum-utility wardrobe. Its youthful energy permeates throughout the wacky sensibility that has put the brand on the style map and teases out all style possibilities. Stripes race in varied directions, intertwining or dissolving into one another. Square patterns alternate from bold, tartan-like variations to sunny Madras prints and artsy brushstrokes. Summer blue cavorts from serene turquoise to deep indigo.

UCB maintains its position as a global brand for quality, directional casual-wear with its pulse on key trends and emphasis on fun and creativity in design and dressing. Season after season, UCB is a reliable source of easy-to-wear casuals, backed by Italian manufacturing that can be dressed up or down, and ultimately work as sound investment pieces.  UCB is also known for its social advocacies, for promoting, especially through its advertising, a world beyond borders, skin color, and language.
