Woven baskets and netted tote bags might be the usual beach-bumming accessories, but Dua Lipa is introducing a new kind of high-fashion seafront statement: the Loewe x Spirited Away capsule collection.

The dreamy 2001 film, directed by Hayao Miyazaki, has gained a cult following since its release more than two decades ago. In early January, Loewe announced that it would be honoring the fantasy movie with a capsule, marking the Spanish fashion brand's second collaboration with Miyazaki's animation house, Studio Ghibli. The collection includes ready-to-wear sweaters, blankets, scarves, and leather goods bearing the faces of the movie's most beloved characters.

Lipa was spotted on the beach in Miami toting around a small hammock bag from the capsule. It features the face of the movie's protagonist, young Chihiro, alongside caramel calfskin straps, colorful embroidery, and gold hardware.

She wore the Loewe purse with a yellow-and-orange checkered crochet bikini, a yellow crocheted wrap, a gold belly chain, and black wedge flip-flops by Coperni.

This is Loewe's second Studio Ghibli collection. Last year, creative director Jonathan Anderson released a capsule based on the studio's 1988 film, My Neighbor Totoro.

"Studio Ghibli's exquisite storytelling is matched by a tireless dedication to craft in order to bring their enchanting films to life," he said in a recent press release. "Such love for the possibilities of craft—and the painstaking nature of working by hand—is something we truly nurture at LOEWE. This shared commitment to the magic of handcrafted things is where our connection lies."
