About the Designer.

Kathleen Evangelista is a Filipino fashion designer born into a family of missionaries and evangelists, her nomadic upbringing nurtured a deep fascination with humanity, culture, and language. Her artistic journey began in church—singing, dancing, acting, crafting, and teaching—where creativity was an act of service.

At six, she fashioned her first drape from swaddling cloths (lampin); 21 years later, she earned a Master's  degree in Fashion from the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), following a Bachelor's in Clothing Technology from the University of the Philippines Diliman.

As a designer, Evangelista merges spirituality, solemnity, and surrealism, weaving biological methods and philosophical motifs into minimal yet intricate silhouettes. She dreams of establishing a creative foundation to benefit artistic, yet underserved Filipino youth.
