Soulland and Hello Kitty are the latest two forces to work in collaboration on a special new collection together. The duo launch a collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2023 season and is full of apparel that is detailed with the beloved character.
It is made up of a range of unisex styles that is comprised of a variety of silhouettes including a full-length dress for the warmer season. It is detailed with a Hello Kitty graphic all over the silhouette. This is followed by a playful set made up of a shirt and pants to match along with a sleeveless crew tank top. The rest of the range includes a two-piece suit including a blazer and pants with beige tones and the familiar all-over graphic.
