Kawaii! Loewe's new Totoro collaboration is one for fans of the classic anime
Collaborations between way houses and nostalgic cartoon characters have been all the rage recently. Gucci dropped a Mickey Mouse collection for Chinese New Year in 2020, and only terminal week unveiled a Doraemon collaboration. Longchamp too recently launched a Pokemon collection, while Balenciaga collaborated with Hello Kitty.
Spanish luxury house Loewe is now jumping on the bandwagon with a collaboration with Japanese animation house Studio Ghibli. The Loewe x My Neighbor Totoro capsule drove takes inspiration from the much-loved 1988 tale, creating a cute and chic drove of leather accessories and ready-to-wear items.
The collection was a effect of Loewe's creative director Jonathan Anderson's "longing for heartwarming feelings", the make said in a press note.
"When I remember of a movie that affords me that kind of solace, speaking just as directly to a kid as it does to an adult, that movie is My Neighbour Totoro. Anyone who has seen Hayao Miyazaki's 1988 masterpiece cannot perhaps forget it," Anderson said.
Indeed, nothing brings out feelings of nostalgia much like the animations we grew upward with.
The collection features the iconic characters and the fantasy earth they inhabit. The mischievous fuzzy dust bunnies and the ambrosial round Totoro are interpreted as prints, allover prints, jacquard intarsia and leather marquetry.
These characters also feature on the surface of iconic Loewe bags such every bit the Puzzle, the Balloon and the Hammock, equally well as on small leather accessories such as pouches, cases and wallets.
The whimsical motifs are also crafted onto T-shirts and sweatshirts, which take on a youthful colour palette.
If you'd like to go your hands on the items, the Loewe x My Neighbor Totoro capsule collection will be available in-store and online from Jan 8.
