My List by @clauribeiro

Patty Ang

Patty Ang, just a quick online search reveals some of the labels that identify this woman: a fashion designer, a mother, a businesswoman, a role model for young entrepreneurs, and even an amazing person to talk to.

These comments certainly help create a mental image of who she is, but they don’t come close to painting the whole picture. It is precisely in an attempt to bring another perspective about her that we bring here a commentary on Patty Ang’s works for this edition’s My List.

To comment on Ang’s pieces, we need to understand a bit about the woman behind the brand. Patty, as a mother who has embraced motherhood’s responsibilities from a very early age, carries with her an aesthetic that oscillates between professional, practical, and modern, as well as a classic femininity, even slightly “bubblegum.”

Certainly, fabric choices play a leading role in achieving this final effect. Patty Ang’s pieces play with translucency, feather and ruffle textures, as well as small lace details. There is a noticeable investment in comfort, and you can tell, with a brief look at the pieces, that they are fresh, light, and comfortable.

Along the same lines, Patty also shows her modern, classic side, which certainly draws from the tailoring and haute couture traditions. With fabric constructions that adapt to the female body, structures that are aesthetic spectacles in themselves, Patty Ang manages to bring timeless traits in modern and inventive proposals, which leads me to comment on Patton, another brand by Patty Ang that conveys this cosmopolitan essence with even more vigor.

Patton

Patton is modern, it is democratic. It is young, athletic, and free. With pieces for all bodies, masculine, feminine, and non-binary designs, it makes use of indispensable elements for the wardrobe of those who want to feel good in their own skin, who recognize the importance of the impression they leave on the world.

At Patton, we see how less is more. The brand has a concise color palette: white, black, gray, moss green, and some shades of cream and brown. Faced with tank tops, overalls, basic shirts, pants, and hoodies, we can easily imagine some outfits completely based on Patton.

These are looks that directly speak to the city’s lifestyle. Clothes that can accompany you at university, in a more flexible work environment, and even at the gym. This is because the design of the pieces goes far beyond appearance, also focusing on functionality.

The modern citizen lives a fuller routine, and needs clothes that adapt to the day’s fast pace. With a Patton, you can easily go to yoga right after your university classes without having to change a single piece.

Patton is about simplifying, prioritizing. It’s about slow fashion, about a fashion beyond fleeting trends. The brand is current, political, important, and draws from influences that are contemporary and ahead of our time. #PattonYourLife needs to reach the Trending Topics as soon as possible.
