Hello Kitty gears up to big B-Day celebrations

Can you imagine that the ever-young feline character from Japan is getting 35 this November?

While the main birthday celebrations will be held on November 1, the Day Hello Kitty was created in 1974, celebs as well as designers and the whole fashion world are already gearing up for big global celebrations.

I like Hello Kitty, and I love my Hello Kitty tote, it’s just awesome, so I’m really looking forward to new Hello Kitty stuff coming in the next few months.

First of all, Hello Kitty creator Sanrio Co. is going to launch a new British inspired tartan collection that will hit Japanese stores this month. The checkered-pink series will feature handbags, trinkets, a shawl and a Kitty version of a teddy bear.

Also, get ready for Hello Kitty special birthday iPhone cases and business card holders designed by Kimora Lee Simmons, a one-of-a-kind Hello Kitty-inspired Swarovski necklace, and other collaborations with designers like Judith Leiber, Linda Farrow, and American Apparel among others, WWD.com reported.

Besides, some celebs wearing Hello Kitty will take part in the photo exhibition held in New York and LA in October this year to mark the glam event.

Are you excited?

Hello Kitty was created in 1974 as an Asian counterpart to Mickey Mouse. Ever since 1980 it has been designed by Yuko Yamaguchi. Hello Kitty has become a massive global brand selling some 50,000 products in 70 nations, including dolls, clothes, accessories and homeware.

Hello Kitty has some A-list fans as well. Check out some of then in the gallery below:
