Talk about cat lovers! The first ever Hello Kitty Convention in Los Angeles was all about dolls, dresses, and donuts (topped off with edible bows, of course). In honor of the iconic Sanrio kitty’s 40th anniversary, fans put their devotion on display by dressing up in some of the most elaborate and awesome Hello Kitty costumes ever seen.
The four-day festival featured celebs like Katy Perry, Hello Kitty-themed crafts, and, for true devotees: permanent Sanrio tattoos. But the best part? The fashion.
Check out 30 of the most incredible looks from Hello Kitty Con and decide which ones deserve the most love. Whether you prefer wacky interpretations of anime art or perfectly precise replicas of the Kitty herself, you’re sure to see something totally kawaii. Which is your favorite?
