The image most people have for fashion created for anime fans is limited to T-shirts with artwork from their favorite movies or series, or perhaps a reproduction of some costume for those who are into cosplay. Studio Ghibli, though, is more subtle: its Donguri Closet series has some truly unique apparel and accessories that only hint at the original anime. This way, you can enjoy your favorite characters in a more discreet and tasteful way. The Howl's Moving Castle Scrunchie is a wonderful example of this!
The fabric used in the Howl's Moving Castle Scrunchie is polyester sheer organza in a pattern that will make any fan of Hayao Miyazaki, and particularly of his 2004 fairy tale Howl's Moving Castle, smile knowingly: it's the gray and pink pattern that decorates the cloak of Howl Jenkins Pendragon, the protagonist of the film. But the references to the film don't stop there: from the 160 x 60 x 140 mm (6.3 x 2.4 x 5.5") scrunchie hangs a silver-colored chain with a charm featuring the face of Calcifer, the fire demon that powers Howl's castle!
