The Labubu trend shows no signs of slowing down. According to Google Trends, search interest in “Labubu clothes” has spiked in Australia over the past 12 months.
Backing up the hype, Temu, a global online marketplace, reports that 6 of its top 10 best-selling items in the Dolls & Accessories category are Labubu clothing sets with some listings selling nearly 20,000 units.
On TikTok, creators like Tilda, dubbed the “blind box toy queen” are leading the charge. Her videos featuring curated Labubu outfits from Temu have gained traction with fans eager to give their mini companions a runway-ready makeover.
Meanwhile, over in Melbourne, YouTuber Joanne Santos recently unveiled her first Labubu outfit haul, revealing a collection that spans adorable to avant-garde. From tiny suspenders to hand-crocheted accessories, these pint-sized outfits are capturing hearts across the country.
And it’s not just about looks, it’s about affordability. One Aussie shopper raved about a recent find from Temu:
