Revé by René’s new Hello Kitty eyewear collection brings all new meaning to cat eyes

Being the pop culture icon that she is, Hello Kitty has a special place in the hearts of many. It turns out the same goes for René Chu, so much so that she drew inspiration from the friendly feline to create her brand Revé by René‘s latest eyewear collection.

“Hello Kitty has transcended generational and cultural limits. She is a global celebrity emblematic of Purity, Friendship and Love. “This collection reflects imagination, savouring fluttery sensations and mischievousness,” says Chu.

The Revé by René x Hello Kitty collection features four designs that are distinctively kawaii yet fashionable.

The Bui Bui is in the classic cat-eye silhouette but with an added, adorable twist. The frame is accented with Hello Kitty’s signature bow. The bow comes in five shades, Lust Red, Supple Pink, Birthday Cake Pink, Black Beauty and Fairy Dust, which are interchangeable to match an outfit or the day’s mood.

For that picture-perfect mother-daughter moment, the designer created a mini-me version of the cat-eye design. BeBe features a similar shape and is accented with a bright red bow at the top left. This design is set to launch in 2022.

Equally adorable is the Cheek to Cheek frameless sunglasses. The left lens is in the shape of Hello Kitty’s cute face with a bow etched on it. The lenses are pink with rose gold-coloured hardware marked with the brand and Hello Kitty’s logos on the end tips to up the cute factor.

And finally, Hello Kitty shows off her cool side with the Let Me In Your Story design. The shades feature a gold half-frame with dark gray or light gold lenses.

These frames are perfect for those who are not afraid to embrace their inner child.
