Following the Nintendo-themed competition that took place last year, UNIQLO plans to drop the collection of winning participants from this year's UT Grand Prix 2018 t-shirt design competition. This year, a plethora of contestants delivered Marvel-inspired pieces, showing motifs from the comics and characters adorning the t-shirts.
The UT Grand Prix competition this year gathered a total of over 8500 entries that were seen and judged by UNIQLO's UT design team, and Marvel company executives, including its Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada. The winning designs will be dropping online and in store locations worldwide beginning April 27th at UNIQLO.
