VIDEO: Patwa Style

Word, sound, fashion designs

PATWA Apparel has no short supply of the absolutely coolest apparel for both sexes, in all sizes, for all ages. If you are looking for a cool T-shirt, (round or v-neck) to wear with a blazer or a sporty luxe dress amongst other styles, Patwa has got you covered.

What is even more fascinating about the brand is how the patois language is used and embraced in the written form on the clothing.

If you want a share of the brand, you can find any of their designs at the Norman Manley International Airport, Sangster International Airport, or at the flagship store at Shop #12, Devon House (worthy of mention is the super-friendly staff). You may also place orders online at patwaapparel.com.

“Patwa is hip, hot and happening. The brand aims to embrace Jamaica’s culture through authentic fashion.” This, Heneka Watkis, owner of patwa told teenAGE.

Heneka is also the author of 15 Hints to Entrepreneurial Success: Lessons from a Caribbean Business Woman, the brainchild behind 10 Fyah Side and is destinesd to take Patwa to great heights.

We fixed you up some cool looks from Patwa (take keen note of how the designs were dressed up with blazers and accessories to create a complete look).
