It will be the purr-fect bag for every occasion.
In the world of bags and luxurious goods, Balenciaga is highly recognised for its weird sense of fashion which took creativity and art to a whole new level.
Famous for its Classic City bag, the fashion brand unveiled a selection of Hello Kitty-inspired accessories and goods at its Spring/Summer 2020 show last year. All of the Hello Kitty fans and bag collectors were super crazy about it and now the feline purses are finally available for purchase. Yay!
The bag first gained a lot of attention following its reveal during Paris Fashion Week.
Debuting in black, white, and pink colourways, the cute bag reinterprets the iconic Japanese character designed by Yuko Shimizu in 1974 – Balenciaga is giving Hello Kitty a high-fashion makeover.
Balenciaga juxtaposes luxury with a commercially known character, elevating the piece with the character’s whiskers made from the shoelaces from the label’s signature Triple-S shoe.
These Hello Kitty bags are UNISEX!
Yup, you heard it right! Who says boy can’t carry a Hello Kitty bag?
The Hello Kitty bag is designed in a UNISEX model so boys and girls can have it! In addition to the large tote bag, the Hello Kitty collection will include a phone holder, XXS Tote, XS Camera Bag, as well as Top Handle bags in XXS in small and medium sizes – all arriving in white, pink or black sporting a red leather bow.
The pieces will be available in China as well as through pre-order online at Balenciaga’s official webpage on January 9 and will be available worldwide from January 27 onwards.
We need that bag already! I mean, who doesn’t love Hello Kitty?
