After releasing two Ghibli collections in the last two years, luxury fashion house Loewe has once again teamed up with Studio Ghibli, this time for a Howl’s Moving Castle collection.

As with the previous Ghibli collabs, this new collection features a range of bags, apparel, and accessories, all of which feature designs based on Hayao Miyazaki’s 2005 anime film.

While this is a must-have for the biggest Howl’s Moving Castle fans, only those with deep pockets will be able to get some pieces due to their sky-high price tags.

Back in 2021, Loewe unveiled its first Ghibli collections that feature designs based on the classic My Neighbor Totoro.

The collection’s highlights include luxury leather bags with Totoro prints and bright colors.

Thanks to the collab’s success, another collection was released in early 2022, this time featuring designs that are based on Spirited Away.

Much like the previous collab, the Spirited Away collection features premium handbags and accessories featuring the likes of No-Face, Soot Sprites, and Chihiro. The lineup also includes apparel such as graphic tees and sweaters.

For 2023, Loewe once again linked up with Studio Ghibli for a new line.

But this time, the collab is centered on the 2005 Miyazaki-directed film, Howl’s Moving Castle.

Howl’s Moving Castle is arguably one of the most popular movies directed by Miyazaki, so it’s likely that this collab will be snapped up fast, especially considering it features some creative designs.

Loewe x Howl’s Moving Castle Collab Pieces

For starters, the collab features various eye-catching apparel pieces, including a cardigan with feathers – a reference to Howl’s bird form.

There are also lots of other striking items like a knitted cape and bright graphic tees.

As Loewe is a highly regarded leather goods house, the collab features various high-end bags too.

Though these do not come cheap, as the bag below has a price tag of USD 3,300.

But perhaps the most striking piece in the collection is this bag that’s designed to look like the moving castle from the movie.

While it may not be the most practical, it’s definitely the stand-out item in the entire collab.

The Loewe x Howl’s Moving Castle collection will be released in selected stores and on the brand’s official website on February 2, 2023.

Those who registered will also be able to shop the collection one day ahead of the global launch.
