Hello Kitty, Your Friend, Forever!

Wed, November 10, 2010, by Muza-chan

Designed by Yuko Shimizu, Hello Kitty is probably one of the most beloved characters in the world. Hello Kitty is a white Japanese bobtail cat, it was born on November 1st 1974, her height is of “five apples” and her weight is “three apples".

Kitty likes “baking cookies” and her favorite word is “friendship", hence the logo “Hello Kitty - Your Friend, Forever!", which I photographed at one of the most popular Sanrio shops, the Gift Gate from Ikebukuro.
