Loewe's second collaboration with Studio Ghibli is just as memorable, especially for fans of the animation studio's characters. This time, the fashion house's new capsule collection celebrates Spirited Away.

Bags, clothes, and accessories are recreated with a touch of magic, and well-loved characters including Chihiro, Haku, Koanoashi, Fly-Bird and Yubaba are rendered in marquetry or embroidery. There are also some pieces inspired by the classic Japanese technique of boro, a practice that consists of patchwork.

Popeye has always been a "cool" guy, which matches the embodiment of New York-based brand Noah. The character, who has been an icon since his creation in 1929, suits the brand well, considering that they love everything nautical.

The collection consists of printed tees, a crewneck sweatshirt, a striped top, work pants, and a stylish Barbour Bedale jacket. There's also an enamel pin you can attach to the jacket!
