UNIQLO will release Francesco Risso’s 2026 F.RISSO knitwear collection, titled “Made for Dreaming,” on October 29 through its stores and web store. The range includes merino wool sweaters in five neckline styles and HEATTECH beanies and socks; prices and detailed product availability have not been provided in the source report.
UNIQLO will release its 2026 F.RISSO knitwear collection on October 29, bringing designer Francesco Risso’s genderless range of merino wool sweaters and HEATTECH accessories to its stores and online shop. The collection, titled “Made for Dreaming,” uses the retailer’s 3D knitting technique and follows the line’s colorful Spring/Summer 2026 debut, according to Hypebeast.
The apparel selection centers on merino wool sweaters in turtleneck, mock-neck, polo, V-neck and boat-neck styles. Hypebeast describes the palette as subdued, with tan, navy and black alongside brighter yellow and light-blue accents. The collection is presented as genderless; the source report does not give product-by-product sizing or fit details.
Accessories include HEATTECH socks and beanies shown in three two-tone colorways. The collection’s knitwear is made using UNIQLO’s 3D knitting technique, which the report says produces garments in one piece. Prices, materials specifications beyond the reported merino wool, and the number of individual products have not been stated in the material provided.
In an official statement quoted by Hypebeast, Risso described the collection’s creative premise as combining machine-made construction with qualities associated with handwork. The report identifies the October 29 launch date and UNIQLO’s stores and web store as sales channels, but does not list regional availability or a launch time.
Risso’s Design Meets UNIQLO Knitwear
The release expands a designer collaboration into a seasonal range built around knitwear and cold-weather accessories, rather than a single standout garment. For shoppers, the confirmed details are the assortment’s sweater necklines, merino wool, HEATTECH accessories and online and store launch channels. The source does not provide prices, so the collection’s cost relative to other UNIQLO knitwear cannot yet be assessed.
For Risso, the collection adds another strand to his work with Fast Retailing, UNIQLO’s parent company. He was appointed creative director of sister brand GU in early 2026, according to the report. The F.RISSO line therefore places his design work across two brands within the group, though the source does not describe how his GU and UNIQLO responsibilities are organized.

From SS26 Debut to Winter Knits
The 2026 knitwear range follows the F.RISSO Spring/Summer 2026 debut, which Hypebeast characterizes as colorful. The new collection shifts attention to sweaters and HEATTECH accessories for the changing season, with a more neutral palette accented by brighter colors.
Risso left Marni in 2025 after a notable period at the fashion house, as reported by Hypebeast. In early 2026, Fast Retailing appointed him creative director of GU. His relationship with the company predates those developments: the report traces it to Marni x UNIQLO, which launched in 2022. The F.RISSO collection is a separate UNIQLO line and is described as extending his work with the group.
“to employ machines capable of engineering a seamless piece of knitwear, only to pursue the irregularity, depth and almost primitive intimacy of something made by hand.”

Prices and Availability Details Pending
The source report does not provide prices, detailed sizing, fabric composition for each style or exact product counts. It also does not specify whether the October 29 release will be available in every UNIQLO market, or whether all items will be offered both in stores and online in each region. The collection’s stated genderless design does not by itself confirm that every style will use identical sizing or fit.
The report attributes descriptions of the design and construction to Risso and UNIQLO, but includes no independent testing of the 3D knitting process or performance information for the garments. Further product-level details remain unconfirmed in the material available.
