The British footwear brand announced a collection with “Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon,” in honor of the beloved animation series’ 30th anniversary which is available starting from February, 14th 2023.

Inspired by shojo manga (girl’s comics), the made-to-order capsule features a selection of statement footwear and dazzling accessories modeled after key characters — like Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus, as well as Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon herself and her sidekick, Luna the cat — created by Naoko Takeuchi, reinterpreted by Jimmy Choo’s Sandra Choi.

Championing their shared values of bold individuality and female empowerment, each of the key characters has been given their own unique shoe style, kicking off with the made-to-order Sailor Moon boot, a vibrant fuchsia pink knee-high stretch style studded with Swarovski crystals and featuring a signature Jimmy Choo kick heel. Elsewhere you’ll find glossy blue patent leather platform boots in homage to Sailor Mercury, sharply pointed pumps in Sailor Mars’ signature scarlet and chunky emerald green leather combat boots in a nod to Sailor Jupiter.

There are five shoe styles: knee-high Swarovski-studded pink Sailor Moon boots, ruby red Sailor Mars patent pumps, chunky green leather Sailor Jupiter lace-ups, glossy blue Sailor Mercury ankle boots and orange satin Sailor Venus platforms. There’s also a One Varenne Quad miniature purse embellished with black-and-white illustrations of Sailor Moon and her love interest, Tuxedo Kamen.

“Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is a unique global phenomenon – a manga and anime that resonates, bridging cultures and languages, speaking to different generations and bringing us all together. That’s what drew me to this project,” Choi said, in a press release. “This collaboration underscores our shared values not just of female empowerment, but for fashion’s ability to inspire inclusivity and individuality through personality and self-belief.”
