You're going to want every piece in Jimmy Choo's Sailor Moon iconic collection.&nbsp;

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the iconic, mould-breaking manga Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon,&nbsp;Jimmy Choo creative director Sandra Choi collaborates on a capsule collection championing shared values of&nbsp;bold individuality, zeitgeist-defining imagery and female empowerment. A rare collaboration between Pretty&nbsp;Guardian Sailor Moon and a luxury fashion brand, fusing the visions of two exceptional female creatives, the&nbsp;collection frames Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon&rsquo;s pop culture influence through the quintessential Jimmy&nbsp;Choo prism of luxury and glamour.

<blockquote>
 &ldquo;Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is a unique global phenomenon - a manga and anime that resonates, bridging&nbsp;cultures and languages, speaking to different generations, bringing us all together. That is what drew me to&nbsp;this project, to celebrate 30 years of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon through this collaboration. Being able to&nbsp;work so closely with Naoko Takeuchi has been so inspiring. This collaboration underscores our shared values&nbsp;not just of female empowerment but for fashion&rsquo;s ability to inspire inclusivity and individuality&nbsp;through personality and self-belief. The notion of transformation via fashion is central to Naoko Takeuchi,&nbsp;and clothes play a vital role in the identity of her super heroines, especially their shoes, the most powerful&nbsp;transformer you can step into.&rdquo;&nbsp;- Sandra Choi, Creative Director Jimmy Choo

Girl's comics&nbsp;

Characterised from its inception as &lsquo;shōjo manga&rsquo; - &lsquo;girl&rsquo;s comics&rsquo; - femininity and female power is at the very&nbsp;heart of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, just as it is embedded within every pair of Jimmy Choo shoes. Dynamic&nbsp;movement, energy, empowerment - the agency of women. The Jimmy Choo x Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon&nbsp;collection translates these qualities to a capsule of footwear and accessories themed around the key&nbsp;characters - the &lsquo;Sailor Guardians&rsquo; - of this manga phenomenon. Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter,&nbsp;Sailor Venus, their mentor cat Luna and of course Sailor Moon herself are all represented, super heroines as&nbsp;envisaged by Naoko Takeuchi, styled by Jimmy Choo.

The immediately identifiable colours of each Sailor Guardian define each style with their unique personae&nbsp;and individual traits inspire design treatments. The collaboration began with an exclusive tribute to the&nbsp;Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon - a Made-to-Order, limited edition Sailor Moon boot, featuring a signature&nbsp;Jimmy Choo kick heel, crescent moon jewel and vibrant pink all-over Swarovski crystal embellishment,bringing these two worlds together as one. The boot debuted in June 2022 at the Pretty Guardian Sailor&nbsp;Moon Museum at the Roppongi Museum, Tokyo.

Sailor Moon boots

This boot is a knee-high stretch style, a streamlined silhouette reflecting her dynamic spirit, with a lacquered&nbsp;kick-heel cast in the same vibrant pink as SAILOR MOON&rsquo;S boots.

Sailor Mercury ankle boots

Based on SAILOR MERCURY&rsquo;s boots, these are glossy patent leather ankle-boots with a pragmatic and&nbsp;energetic platform sole.

Sailor Mars patent pumps

SAILOR MARS red high heels translate to a slender patent pump with sharply pointed vamp and kick-heel.

Sailor Jupiter boots

The strength that characterises SAILOR JUPITER translates to sturdy green lace-up leather combat boots with&nbsp;a rubber lug sole and block heel.

Sailor Venus platform pumps

Platform high-heeled pumps with a slender ankle strap finished in vibrant orange satin and flecked with&nbsp;crystals capture SAILOR VENUS&rsquo; personality.
