Imagine an elf, a gremlin, and a macaroon had a chaotic little lovechild, that’s Labubu, the creepy doll. With those pointy ears, oversized eyes, and a grin that is equal parts cute and unhinged, this tiny character is the latest obsession that has crept its way out of art books and into the clutches of global pop culture. And plot twist, Labubu has now officially entered India. While many are hating on it, the craze of this doll is not dropping anytime soon, especially in millennials.

Who made the Labubu doll?
Created by Hong Kong-based artist Kasing Lung in 2015, Labubu started as a sketch, a giggly, fairy-tale creature inspired by Nordic folklore. Fast forward a decade, and Labubu is not just a doodle, but a full-blown cultural tsunami. From Lisa of BLACKPINK flaunting it on her designer handbag to fashion royalty like Kim K and Rihanna giving it their seal of approval, Labubu is the toy du jour that’s slaying your For You page and your wallets.

Why is the Labubu doll trending?
Part of the whimsical universe called The Monsters, Labubu is actually a girl, though her sharp grin and rogue energy often say otherwise. With over 300 versions in circulation — think glittery, punk, dessert-themed, even One Piece crossovers, Labubu’s versatility is one of her biggest flexes. Some even blink. Others sit. Most steal hearts (and coins).
