PatBO

Patricia Bonaldi, the Founder and Creative Director of PatBO, discovered her love for designing and making clothes at a young age. Growing up in Uberlandia, Brazil, where buying new clothing was not easily accessible, Bonaldi learned to sew from her mother and started creating her own dresses. This sparked her passion for craftsmanship and bringing beauty to everyday garments. After exploring different paths, including studying law, Bonaldi established her own couture label in Sao Paolo, specializing in one-of-a-kind gowns made by hand. In 2002, she expanded her brand with PatBO, showcasing her expertise in fit, craftsmanship, and print through ready-to-wear and swimwear collections. Additionally, Bonaldi established a school and atelier in her hometown, empowering local women with craftsmanship skills and providing them with fulfilling work as artisans.
