MIRYAKI was founded in 2009 with the vision of two young designers: Mia Vilardo and Riccardo Polidoro ,Mia was born in Sicily studied in the Istituto Marangoni and she worked with Marc Jacobs. Riccardo Polidoro comes from Veneto and he attended Istituto Europeo di Design and he worked with Dolce&Gabbana .
Mia Vilardo and Riccardo Polidoro met by a chance, when they were both working as costume-makers for a well-known club in Milan. The feeling was immediate, so that, even before finishing their studies, they were already talking about collaborating together.Thanks to their history and their different past they created an alchemy of art and culture unique and very bold designs.
The Brand literally embodies the meeting between the North and the South of Italy that flows into a melodic symbiosis between the two creative souls.

Just one year on from their debut, the label achieved the first results. Miryaki won the Clam prize at Mittelmoda The Fashion Award, held in Gorizia in July 2010, and in September their collection was showcased at Milan's fashion week alongside with the designs of the other winners of the contest, at the Palazzo dei Giureconsulti, drawing the attention of the specialized press and international buyers.
