LE NGOK: Experimental Fashion and Artisanal Design by Carla Zhang

LE NGOK is a contemporary fashion and design studio led by designer Carla Zhang, operating between the vibrant creative hubs of Manila, Philippines, and Shanghai, China. The brand is defined by its commitment to experimental fashion, utilizing an immersive narrative approach that explores the highs and lows of the designer's personal journey. LE NGOK distinguishes itself through the use of innovative materials and techniques, such as 3D printing for its acclaimed The Pot bag collection and bioplastics for sustainable accessory design.
