# Adorable Sanrio Frames These iCat Sunglasses Let You Rock the Kitty Look in a Fashionable Manner By Matt Ho | Published 2011-06-16 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icat-sunglasses References: [incrediblethings](http://www.incrediblethings.com/kids/icat-sunglasses-turn-you-into-one-shady-cat/) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/listing/75613128/icat-sunglasses-whitered?ref=pr_shop) Ladies, are you such a fan of Hello Kitty that you want to look like the adorable feline? With these iCat Sunglasses, you'd be one step closer. These adorable iCat Sunglasses were designed by GuiltyFreeCandy, who modeled it after Sanrio's most beloved character. The shades have a white frame with whiskers on both ends and of course, a red bow on the left. Cuteness aside, these are practical in the sun as they feature UV400 Lens Technology, which absorbs over 99% of harmful UVA and UVB spectrums. This is a well-executed design that replicates the character perfectly. It'd make a great collection item for anyone who loves Hello Kitty, especially for kids who are looking to own their first pair of sunglasses. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Character-inspired Fashion:** Opportunities for creating fashion items inspired by popular characters like Hello Kitty. - **Function-meets-design Products:** Innovation opportunities for creating products with practical use that also feature unique designs. - **Kid-centric Fashion Accessories:** Innovation opportunities for designing fashion accessories geared towards children. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Opportunities for fashion designers to create character-inspired products. - **Eyewear:** Opportunities for eyewear designers to create fun and functional products that appeal to different age groups. - **Toys and Games:** Opportunities for toy designers to collaborate with fashion designers to develop character-inspired accessories that are also functional. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cat-Inspired Camera Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-kawaii.md) - [Luxe Cartoon Cat Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lanvin-en-bleu.md) - [Cartoon-Inspired Cat Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-1.md) - [Crystalline Cartoon Clog Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-x-crocs-jibbitz.md) - [Cartoon-Honoring High Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel.md) - [Cat-Inspired Luxury Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-and-kate-spade.md) - [UV-Activated Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodr-x-cheetos.md) - [Gummy Candy-Inspired Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-collection.md) - [Tomato-Red Retro Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-35mm-camera.md)
