The anime "Lupin the Third," set in the Republic of San Marino, Italy, is currently airing a new series on television (Nippon TV and Yomiuri TV) for the first time in 30 years, and is garnering attention. This collaboration between Lupin and Isetan will feature an area inspired by the Lupin gang's closet. Leading Japanese tailors, including Tailor & Cutter, Tailor Cade, and Lid Tailor, will showcase styling for anime characters Daisuke Jigen and Inspector Zenigata.
Tailor & Cutter will offer Lupin the Third-themed jackets (starting at 180,000 yen), pants (starting at 50,000 yen), and shirts (starting at 40,000 yen). Tailor Cade will be showcasing skinny-style suits (starting at ¥190,000) and shirts (starting at ¥40,000) inspired by Jigen, while Lid Tailor will be selling trench coats (starting at ¥260,000), suits (starting at ¥330,000), and shirts (starting at ¥40,000) inspired by Inspector Zenigata's iconic style. Additionally, Tagliatore will be releasing a double-breasted jacket (¥85,000) designed specifically for the event, inspired by the blue jacket worn by Lupin in the new TV series. The inside features gold buttons evoking treasure and Lupin's name. Kisaburo, the fourth-generation owner of Iwamoto Wasai, a 90-year-old tailor, will be showcasing a haori (¥110,000), kimono (¥60,000), and horse-riding hakama (¥90,000) inspired by Ishikawa Goemon. Kimonos in collaboration with Lupin III, Daisuke Jigen, Fujiko Mine, and Inspector Zenigata will also be available at the event.
