I've created socks in collaboration with my favorite movie world.
Kiwanda x Elisabeth 1878
"Elisabeth 1878" will be released on Friday, August 25, 2023.
During the final period of the Habsburg Empire's glory at the end of the 19th century, Empress Elisabeth of Austria, affectionately known as "Sissi," was hailed as the most beautiful woman in the European court.
A new pair of socks was created in collaboration with the film "Elisabeth 1878," which focuses on the year that marked her 40th birthday.

Chieko, who is also an avid movie buff, chose the following motif for this film:
Three things Sisi loves
ROYAL HORSE
A noble and elegant horse
There were many horse riding scenes in the movie, highlighting Sisi's love of horses.
VIOLET
Demel's violet candy, which Sisi apparently enjoyed
In the movie, the bright purple packaging of this candy is very striking, and there is a scene that makes you wonder if it was used as a small token of appreciation.
ELISABETH'S ROOM
A tribute to Chieko's room in the Sisi Museum
I've loved movies since I was in elementary school. The source of my creativity is the world of movies.
Since I started KPP in 2016, I have been running a section called KiKi Cinema Club, which is a corner for my hobbies. I don’t know how many movies I have introduced so far.
I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but it's good news.
A distributor who knew I loved movies (and they were fans of our socks) approached me with an offer to collaborate with a great movie.
The movie is "Elisabeth 1878"
It's a common subject in movies and Takarazuka, so I'm sure it has many fans.
I also visited Vienna on a trip to Eastern Europe in January 2020, just before the coronavirus outbreak, and was impressed by the history, personality, and rooms of Sisi at the Sisi Museum (Elisabeth's nickname was Sisi).
I liked her so much that I even named my shoes after her.
Although she was born about 100 years before I was born, she was a woman with modern thinking, and I imagine it must have been difficult to live in those days...
But that makes him so cool and charismatic.
