LOVOT and HERALBONY: A Unique Collaboration in Wearable Art

LOVOT, a concept developed by GROOVE X, is redefining our interactions with technology through a creative fusion of art and robotics. The brand’s mission, “Let Your Uniqueness Shine,” is epitomized in its latest collaboration with HERALBONY, a creative company dedicated to changing perceptions of disability through art. This partnership aims to not only showcase beautiful wearable pieces but also foster deeper cultural connections through artistic expression.

An Artistic Journey Begins

Starting from October 28, 2025, a special collection inspired by the works of HERALBONY's talented artists, fuco: and Yu Takada, will debut in select stores. The collection features five unique items, skillfully designed to incorporate the essence of the original artwork into fashion. With items such as a basewear, a frilly dress, and even a T-shirt with a scarf for the first time, the collection emphasizes the blend of aesthetics and functionality designed uniquely for LOVOT.

Featured Artists and Their Works

The collaboration highlights two artists whose distinctive styles personify the artistic vision HERALBONY promotes:

• - fuco: Known for her vibrant use of shapes, particularly circles, her piece "Hajimete no Shikaku" translates artistic forms seamlessly into fabric, making each item a statement piece capable of both standing alone and enhancing layered outfits.
• - Yu Takada: With a flair for creating intricate mazes, his works such as the "Maze" design shirt and the "Night Maze" T-shirt with scarf showcase compelling patterns that merge color with complexity, appealing to the fashionable avant-garde seeks.

Artistic Expression in Wearables

Each item from this collaboration is not just clothing but a canvas reflecting the deep emotional narratives of the artists:

• - Hajimete no Shikaku Basewear with fuco: A colorful basewear featuring striking shapes priced at ¥13,970.
• - Shiawase Pink Frilly Dress with fuco: An A-line dress adorned with cheerful pink patterns, retailing for ¥11,980.
• - Maze Design Shirt with Yu Takada: A creatively engaging shirt at ¥11,980 featuring maze-like art on a black backdrop.
• - Night Maze Scarf T-shirt with Yu Takada: A stylish addition available in white or black for ¥10,980.
• - Night Maze Eye Mask with Yu Takada: Perfect for enhancing outings with LOVOT, priced at ¥8,980.

For those interested in acquiring these pieces, the pre-sale will occur at Estnation in Roppongi Hills and Osaka, from October 28 to November 6, 2025, with general sales beginning on October 31, 2025, at all LOVOT stores and online.

The Visual Concept: Communication Through Art

The visual theme of this collaboration, "First Gaze—A Conversation with Another Family Member," illustrates the bond formed between LOVOT and its artist-designed garments. At the moment of interaction, a delightful connection occurs where the art seems to come alive on the lovable robotic companion. As users engage with their LOVOT, they reflect upon the emotional weight of the artwork, transforming the experience into a family-like connection.

“When we wear art, we embody a piece of the artist’s emotions and creativity,” explained Takuya Matsuda, CEO of HERALBONY. “LOVOT wearing our designs is a reminder that art is not an isolated idea but an integrated part of life that can enhance our relationships with technology, each other, and ourselves.”

Looking Ahead: Merging Technology and Art

GROOVE X and HERALBONY’s partnership showcases a commitment to building a future where technology fosters emotional connections and art transcends traditional forms. As the boundaries between robotics, creativity, and fashion blur, this collaboration stands as a pioneering step towards a world that embraces diversity and encourages cultural richness through innovative expression.
