The Epilogue collection is Gucci's Chinese New Year offering this 2021 and it includes over 50 items featuring the image of the beloved Japanese manga character Doraemon.

Doraemon is a cat robot from the future, born on September 3, 2112. He was sent from the future to help a young boy named Nobita through the help of his magical gadgets, which he keeps in his four-dimensional pouch.

Gucci also noted on their website that the cute Japanese character created by Fujiko Fujio hates mice and loves Dorayaki, a pancake-style sweet packed with red bean filling.

The cartoon series Doraemon first aired on GMA-7 back in 1999 and has since become one of the most popular Japanese cartoon characters in the Philippines.

Last year, fashion brand Uniqlo also debuted their Doraemon-inspired collection, in celebration of his 50th anniversary.

Gucci's Doraemon collection is definitely a dream come true for every Doraemon fan who also loves clothes and accessories from the famous Italian fashion house.

Most items are also produced using sustainable materials such as organic denim and canvas with low environmental impact.
