The 2024 Zipster Design Competition
This month marks our third birthday as a brand, and we're celebrating by giving our customers and followers a chance to design their very own Zipster!
In February we launched the competition and we were delighted to receive over 200 applications. We shortlisted the entries and made 10 designs into real samples. You can see the shortlisters here.
You then voted for your favourites, and we are delighted to announce the winner below!
and the winner is....
Comic Cuddles!
With its playful and vibrant theme, we are thrilled to announce that Kristen Nicola's Comic Cuddles is the winner of our Design Competition!
The design will now be put into production with the designer's name on the tag!
Stay tuned for the release of the Comic Cuddles print within the next few months, and once again, thank you to everyone who participated and voted. We couldn’t have done it without you.
