Celebrities, models and social media stars: This rarefied group of good-lookers are often spotted out and about in the coolest outfits, which we admit makes us super envious.

If only we could raid their closets without getting caught…But seriously, do we need to part with thousands of dollars from our hard-earned savings to rock their style? Not really.

To “get the look for less”, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite celeb outfits and paired most of them with a matching item (or two) from the Uniqlo U collection. Now for some fun facts for the fashionista.

Launching on February 17 and April 17, this hotly anticipated new range is artistic director Christophe Lemaire’s second collection for the Japanese fashion label.

Prior to his arrival at Uniqlo, the French designer partnered the brand for two successful collaborations, with his first Uniqlo U Collection being incredibly well-received by his fans and fashion editors from around the world.

His history of success makes the new pieces all the more lust-worthy.

Can’t wait for the pieces to drop in stores? Check out some of the designs in our gallery now.

Since Fann’s red gown is more suitable for date nights and gala dinners, we’re recommending this pared down version. This bold shirt and skirt combo is an effortless way to inject a youthful vibe to your look.
