What color is Hello Kitty, really?

The answer people expect is white, and that is right: Hello Kitty is a white cat. What varies is everything around her. The bow is red in the classic version, but pink, blue and yellow are all official, and the color of the bow is the fastest way to make a drawing your own.

Her overalls are blue with a yellow trim in the version most people picture, from the first illustration in 1974. The nose is yellow, small and easy to miss, and it is the detail people search for most. She has no mouth, which was deliberate: without an expression she can be happy or sad depending on the day the child is having.

That leaves a lot of room on a coloring page. The face and body stay white or cream, so almost every color decision goes to the bow, the clothes and the scenery. Pick the bow first, then everything else can follow it.

Leave the face white. Coloring it in makes the whole drawing flat, because the black outline is what gives Hello Kitty her shape.

Common questions

What color is Hello Kitty's nose?

Yellow, and it stays yellow across every official version. It is a small oval and it is the one part of the face that carries color, which is why it reads so clearly against the white.

Which Hello Kitty coloring page suits a toddler?

The face close up and the plain standing pose: thick lines, big shapes and no background. Both are done in about fifteen minutes with a fat crayon.

Why does Hello Kitty have no mouth?

Sanrio made that choice on purpose. Without a mouth she carries no fixed expression, so a child can read her as happy, sad or calm depending on the moment. On a coloring page it also means there is one fewer small area to worry about.

Is there a Hello Kitty coloring page for adults?

Yes, one: a symmetrical pattern built out of small repeated shapes. It holds far more areas than the rest of the collection and it sits on the adult page for that reason.

Can I color Hello Kitty online instead of printing?

Yes. Every drawing in the collection opens in the browser. Pick a color, click an area and it fills, and your work is saved on your own device so you can come back to it.
