Philip Huang is the protagonist of this chapter from the series of videos dedicated to the designers of The Sustainable Style. One of the most interesting event-projects of Pitti Uomo 98: a special showcase on eco-sustainability, production ethics, esthetics, style and business which will focus the spotlight on thirteen designers + a special guest who have all embarked upon their own path towards responsible and sustainable fashion.
 
Founded by Philip Huang and Chomwan Weeraworawit in 2016, Philip Huang’s clothing merges indigenous know-how from artisans in the Northeast of Thailand passed down from generation to generation with contemporary design to create versatile, modern clothing with a hand-crafted touch. Making clothes for today and the future, Philip Huang utilises plant-based natural dyes, organic fibres, homespun textiles and accessories, drawing from the land by working closely with the artisans that he lovingly calls “indigo grandmas,” the keepers of this sacred knowledge.
