Sanrio posted a picture promoting a collaboration between My Melody and Strawberry Shortcake for National Strawberry Day. The promotional image uses the original design for Strawberry Shortcake, and the two have a matching strawberry pattern on their headwear.

Apparel and accessories using the collaboration design are on the websites of stores like Forever 21 and Target. However, Sanrio did not mention them in the post. It’s possible that more items featuring the two will appear in the future, though we will need to wait for Sanrio to announce more information about it in the future.

Items that are part of this line include a fanny pack, which costs $24.99 at Target. You can also get clothing items like a pullover and a pajama set at Forever 21. All of the items feature the retro design of Strawberry Shortcake posing with My Melody, with plenty of strawberries around them as part of the frame and overall pattern.

2025 marks the 50th anniversary of My Melody (and Kuromi), with Sanrio releasing collaboration merchandise like a Squishmallow pillow and CASETiFY phone accessories. As for Strawberry Shortcake, she’s a cartoon character who first appeared on greeting cards before becoming a franchise, complete with dolls and animations. Strawberry Shortcake first appeared in 1972, which means she’s around the same age as My Melody.

More information on the My Melody and Strawberry Shortcake collaboration may appear in the future, if Sanrio plans to do more than release clothes and accessories.
