UNIQLO and Coca-Cola team up for its annual UT Grand Prix (UTGP) T-Shirt Design Contest. Each year contestants submit their designs to the judging panel comprised of some noted designers and artists in the world. 10 designs are chosen as the winners. The designs are judged based on the inspiration from the brand’s heritage, referencing everything from the contour bottle, signature logo, and historic campaign slogans. T-shirts run for $20.

The overall Grand Prize winner is Karrie Lee (Lee Lai Yan) from Hong Kong. Her design was inspired by her friend who loves to drink Coca-Cola at tea time. Like the British, this is a Hong Kong custom, and is typically enjoyed around 4 p.m. The shirts will be available at UNIQLO on Sunday, May 14.
