What is the inspiration behind the Hello Kitty Sakura Blushing collection?
The main inspiration behind “Hello Kitty Sakura Blushing” is the arrival of spring and the beautiful phenomenon of cherry blossom blooming in Japan. Sanrio has carefully captured the delicacy of the flowers, soft pastel tones, and the promise of change and renewal that this season brings, creating a special connection with fans around the world.
History of Hello Kitty
Also known as Kitty White, Hello Kitty was created by Japanese designer Yuko Shimizu in 1974, inspired by the book Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll, which mentions a cat named “Kitty.” In Sanrio’s lore, Hello Kitty lives in London with her family and her twin sister Mimmy, who is distinguished by wearing a yellow bow instead of Kitty’s iconic red one.
From the beginning, Hello Kitty has been a timeless character. One of her most unique traits is her lack of a mouth, which allows fans to project their own emotions onto her, making her universally relatable. According to Sanrio, this characteristic enables Hello Kitty to reflect each person’s mood, creating an emotional connection with her fans.
Who are Hello Kitty’s friends and family?
Hello Kitty has a family and group of friends who enrich her world and reinforce the values that Sanrio promotes. Among them is Dear Daniel, her boyfriend since 1999, who shares Kitty’s love for music. There’s also her twin sister Mimmy, and her parents, with whom she lives in London.
In addition to Hello Kitty, Sanrio has created many other beloved characters like My Melody and Kuromi. These characters complement the Hello Kitty universe and reinforce Sanrio’s core values of friendship and joy.
