UNIQLO and Cirque du Soleil, a touring circus group that has dazzled over 80 million spectators in 200 cities on five continents, came together in a new kind of collaboration. Through this joint effort, UNIQLO aimed to globally expand its brand awareness.

The creative team documented performers, who sported UNIQLO fashions, during training sessions of Corteo, Cirque du Soleil's largest touring production, in Ottawa and Miami. These offstage shots set the stage for a sensational event in Tokyo.

UNIQLO, Corteo, and 3000 spectators were united in a physical and spiritual sense through this magical evening. The campaign culminated in the upload of event shots onto the UNIQLO site, allowing fans worldwide to share the experience.
