Though Patty Ang only launched her eponymous label in 2014, she already established herself as a design force, counting among her loyalists the likes of Heart Evangelista, KC Concepcion, and Andi Eigenmann, as well as international celebrities including Chrissy Teigen, Doja Cat, and influencers like Shea Marie. She employs an international PR team, holds sales in Paris before each collection is even released in the Philippines, and was in the process of expanding her stockists until the pandemic put a pin in it.
Even stringent lockdown, however, couldn’t keep Ang from working and expanding. At the beginning of the pandemic, her atelier turned into a hub for PPE production, which her team then donated to hospitals. When the need became less urgent, she focused back on her business and even launched—and opened a brick-and-mortar for—her new loungewear label, Patton. Think: comfortable cropped sweatshirts, seductive snug bodysuits, and highly Instagrammable two-piece sets.
Two pieces in particular have the word “Resilience” knitted on them. “Resilience is such a dear word to me,” Ang tells me over Zoom.
See, while her career trajectory is impressive, her mettle as a woman is even more. When she was really young, an assault led to her early pregnancy. Having to come to terms with her experience and navigate early motherhood she says “shaped me as a person—who I am, my thinking, how I cope with things daily.”
