Channeling 2000s Glamour: Hello Kitty by CASETiFY Y2K-Inspired Tech Collection



CASETiFY is reuniting with the ultimate global pop icon Hello Kitty for a throwback fashion collaboration. Launching globally on September 29, 2026, the Hello Kitty by CASETiFY Collection turns everyday devices into Y2K statement pieces, offering deep customization, MagSafe-compatible plush charms, and personalized tech setups.

Grounded in Hello Kitty's warm personality and theme of friendship, the collection translates her world into a customizable playground for self-expression. Unapologetic 2000s graphics pair with bold leopard prints in hot pink, cool grey, jet black, and classic tan. Designed to evolve alongside changing personal aesthetics, the collection offers complete creative freedom to mix, match, and personalize tech accessories for any look. 

Key highlights from the collection include:

  • Exclusive Blind Box Plushies: Adding an element of surprise to the drop, the collection introduces limited-edition collectible Hello Kitty Plush Charm with Love Lock Blind Box styled in iconic Y2K velour tracksuits. Engineered with MagSafe compatibility and detachable from the love-lock, the charms effortlessly snap onto phone cases or loop onto handbags.
  • Matching Prints & Customization: Fans can take creative control by combining motif sticker layouts, vintage graphics, and custom gothic scripts. Options include choosing Hello Kitty poses, adding custom phrases like "Y2K Cutie" or "Friendship Forever," and selecting sticker cases featuring hearts, bows, and sparkly gems across mirror and leopard backdrops.
  • Full Custom Tech Canvas: Personalization extends across CASETiFY's signature cases for iPhone and Android, alongside matching protective gear for iPad and sleek MagSafe wireless charging stands.
  • Regional Pop-Up Exclusives: Celebrating the launch, an interactive pop-up experience at the Shenzhen MIXC Outdoor Square (September 29 to October 7) will showcase two location-exclusive Hello Kitty prints.

The Hello Kitty by CASETiFY Collection launches on casetify.com on September 29, 2026. It will be available for purchase online, via the CASETiFY Co-Lab app, and at CASETiFY Studio locations worldwide.
