MAC Hello Kitty Collection -- February 12, 2009

And it's finally here... the collaboration that we've been (or at least most of us) waiting for to happen, MAC and Hello Kitty Collection releasing next year February 12, 2009 (March 2009 for the International peeps).

So is this going to be bigger than the Barbie release? Will it have better packaging than this year's Spring collection, MAC for Fafi? We can only hope so!

Here are some images that we can expect for this collection:







The collection will have two lines: one regular color collection, and a higher-end and couture line.

Here's a brief rundown of what to expect and a summary of the article from WWD. To read the whole article, click here.
