With the vision of "Making the world happy with robotics," YUKAI LTD. (ユカイ工学株式会社) (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; Representative: Shunsuke Aoki), which plans and develops numerous communication robots and IoT products, will be launching the "peek-a-boo" charm robot "mirumi" in Spring 2026. "mirumi" appeared at the Spring/Summer 26 fashion show of Italian fashion brand GCDS (ジーシーディーエス). This collection was announced on February 27, 2026, in Milan, Italy.
This collection's theme is "What’s in My Bag?" (Treasures in my bag). Creative Director Giuliano Calza packed his 10 years of accumulated identity and his own cherished "treasures" into bags and sent them out onto the runway. As the symbolic "personal companion lurking in a modern bag," the charm robot "mirumi" was designated through Mr. Calza's own offer.
"mirumi," wearing a special costume and curiously peeking at the outside world from a gap in the bag, went beyond being a mere accessory. It was a key item embodying the "playfulness" and "fusion of technology" the designer wanted to express on the important 10th-anniversary stage, drawing keen attention from media and celebrities worldwide.
