Uniqlo to debut Labubu collection in September, here's what to expect

The Labubu craze in Singapore is set to continue with Japanese retail brand Uniqlo launching a collection featuring this devilish little creature.

Set to drop in September, the collection is titled The Monsters and consists of 14 styles of T-shirts and sweatshirts, priced from $14.90 to $39.90.

The collection will be in women's and girls' sizes, while male customers can check the sizes when making a purchase.

Although Uniqlo is expecting high demand, the brand will not be implementing a purchasing limit for each customer, The Straits Times reported.

No specific launch date was provided as of the time of writing, so Labubu fans will have to keep their eyes peeled for when exactly can they snag these exciting pieces.

For the uninitiated, Labubu is a devilish character that is part of The Monsters series created by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung back in 2015.

Labubu's popularity skyrocketed onto the world stage after international celebrities such as Lisa, Dua Lipa and Rihanna were spotted with the dolls, often attached to a bag.

It's not just clothing collaborations and dolls either. In June, a human-sized Labubu figure was sold for $194,000 at an auction house in Beijing.
