2023: Junior Design Awards

GOLD: BEST CHILDREN'S ECO BRAND

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we have won GOLD for Best Children's Eco Brand at this year's Junior Design Awards for our organic cotton/cashmere collection.

WHO: Mika & Milo

WHAT: Organic cotton and cashmere collection

WHY: Our judges were excited to hear that the brand known for its incredibly soft cashmere has branched out into an organic cotton and cashmere blend that is much easier to wash! While they still have their cashmere offering, this new blend means the Mika & Milo designs can be worn for playing and eating in without all that pressure of hand -washing and spot cleaning. The panel loved the mix of punchy bright colours and soft pastels and the cool graphic designs on offer. The brand’s ethical choice of using organic cotton was applauded.

"Gorgeous!"

"Absolutely love the vibrant colour palette, soft to the touch cotton/cashmere mix and the fact that my favourite jumpers are now machine washable!"

"This is one of my favourite knitwear brands and although I always covet their cashmere, it’s great to see their designs available in a soft organic cotton and cashmere mix that’s easy to clean!"
