SUBMISSION #1
ELBOW-LENGTH TURTLENECK
Submitted by Sarah J. of Norwood, ON
“This design would be an elbow length turtleneck to provide comfort, coverage, and versality for the fall and winter months. The puffed sleeves at the shoulder (like the Janette top) would fall down straight and fitted on the upper arm for a slimming effect on the arms (the attention would be drawn to the shoulder). The turtleneck (like that of the Terry turtleneck top) would provide coverage and warmth for the cold weather, while the slightly fitted body would add sophistication and style.” - Sarah
SUBMISSION #2
3/4 SLEEVE WRAP DRESS
Submitted by Nancy F., Victoria K., + sisters Sara F. and Kate W.
FEATURES
Updated faux-wrap dress
Front tie
3/4 sleeves
Knee length
“A classic V-collar which is not too low and accommodates all women. A belt, 3/4 sleeves which are not too tight fitting and knee length would be perfect for work with boots or heels.” - Nancy
"We would love to see a classic wrap dress with 3/4-length sleeves. So the Sonya with an updated sleeve, please!" - Sara + Kate
SUBMISSION #3
ASYMMETRICAL DRAPED CARDI
Submitted by Nidhi S. of Oakville, ON and Angela W. of Toronto, ON
FEATURES
Asymmetrical cardigan
Shawl-like front that drapes across
3/4 or full-length sleeves
"This is a fabulous one-button asymmetrical flowy shawl cardigan, intended to provide a bit more coverage for those days when you need or want a bit more covering the tummy area." - Nidhi
SUBMISSION #4
CARGO JOGGERS
Submitted by Kelli T. of High River, AB
FEATURES
Full-length pants
Jogger style with banded hem
Side pockets as well as cargo pockets
"I can't find a pair of ethically-made, comfortable, cargo joggers...so why not make some?! I'd like to be able to fit my phone in the side pockets (like the Seana leggings) but would like the jogger-look instead. I picture a comfy, pull-on elastic waistband and a banded hem." - Kelly
SUBMISSION #5
PEPLUM LONGSLEEVE TOP
Submitted by Sierra K. of Toronto, ON
FEATURES
Scoop neck
Long sleeves
Small peplum starting at waist
"This is an elevated basic scoop neck with a slim sleeve. A small peplum starts at the waist and ends at the high hip. It could be paired with pants or worn with a coordinating pencil skirt to achieve the look of a dress." - Sierra
SUBMISSION #6
DUSTER VEST
Submitted by Diane S. of Ottawa, ON
FEATURES
Sleeveless vest
Open-front
Duster length
Streamline silhouette
"A sleeveless duster would provide wardrobe versatility when worn with different colour tops. Turtlenecks would especially look great paired with a sleeveless duster. Dusters drape away from the body and elongate which creates an elegant silhouette." - Diane S.
SUBMISSION #7
PUFF SLEEVE SWEATSHIRT
Submitted by Brooke M. of Kitchener, ON
FEATURES
Crew neck
Pleated puff sleeves
Long sleeve sweatshirt
Luxe fleece fabric
Banded hem and sleeves
"A pleated puff sleeve crewneck in your luxe fleece. Love the elevated sweatshirt look." - Brooke
SUBMISSION #8
GATHERED SHELL TOP
Submitted by Samantha E. of Burlington, ON
FEATURES
Sleeveless
Mockneck with gathering
Draped silhouette
Rounded hem
"The perfect underpinning for any Miik blazer. Polished with a beautiful drape, this silhouette is sleeveless and features a lightly padded mock neck offset with delicate shirring. I would choose different colours/pattern." - Samantha
SUBMISSION #9
WIDE SLEEVE POCKET TUNIC
Submitted by Stephanie O. of Jordan, ON
FEATURES
V-neck
Wide elbow length sleeves
Delicate centre seam in the front
Angled seams that meet hidden, deep pockets
Tunic length
"I love the lines of this tunic! The line of the pocket extends up toward the centre seam on the front to create a beautiful narrowing of the high waist, while the V neckline also draws the eye toward the narrow middle. A less deep v to make the piece more wearable in a work environment. The neck opening comes right to the neck, so no worries on exposed bra straps. Wide, elbow length sleeves allow this to be a great piece for Fall, Winter, and into Spring." - Stephanie
SUBMISSION #10
PLEATED WIDE LEG PANT
Submitted by Nitcha K. of Mississauga, ON
FEATURES
Wide leg pant
Pleated front
Belt loops (Blair belt shown but not included)
Pockets
"My dream pant sits at the natural waist, or a bit higher if need be. The pant would have pleats in the front; this hides my tummy pouch as the leg would hang from the waist straight down, almost like a palazzo pant, but not so much fabric. The waistband should be wide enough to accommodate the belt, but not too wide that it folds over." - Nitcha
- HOW IT WORKS
- You vote for your fave design inspo! If chosen, we use the winner’s submitted inspiration to design a piece with them that will suit our demographic and production capabilities. We use our existing designs and patterns as starting points when possible, but always create an original Miik style based on the inspo you all voted for.
Terms & Conditions
Entrants to the design contest must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada. Entrants may submit more than one design; however, only one submission of an entrant may be chosen for the top ten (10) designs; no entrant will have more than one (1) design chosen for the top ten (10) designs. The deadline for submissions is March 8, 2023 11:59PM PT. No entries are guaranteed to be chosen for the top ten (10) or as the winning design. The top ten (10) designs will be chosen by the Miik Inc. team internally based upon factors which include, but are not limited to, possibility of production, likelihood of sales, and opinion of the style. The top ten (10) designs will be voted upon in a public forum (Miik Inc.'s website) where the general public may choose which design is their favourite and submit a vote for it. Voting will open March 10, 2023 and close March 16, 2023. The top design(s) with the most votes as of March 16, 2023 at 11:59PM PT will be declared the winner(s). Miik will choose a first place winner and reserves the right to choose as many runner-ups as we deem appropriate. The winners will be announced via Miik Inc.'s chosen channels the week of March 17, 2023. The winner(s) of the design contest will be required to review and sign an agreement prior to the production of the winning style. The winner(s) will be contacted via email and/or phone and, should they comply with Miik's terms, the first place winner will receive two (2) of the items of clothing which they designed once they are produced, will have the opportunity to name the style they created, and will receive a digital 200.00CAD Miik gift card for use on miik.ca. The selected runner-ups, if any are chosen and announced by Miik Inc., will each receive one (1) of the items of clothing which they designed once they are produced and will have the opportunity to name the style they each created. Should more than one person win the prize, the prize will be split as determined by Miik. The prize(s) are not redeemable as cash.
