Fashion & Film: Pat Kay Laudencia

Before Pat Kay Laudencia (@twinpks_) focused on costume styling, she worked across film sets as a cinematographer, director and editor. The range has shaped how she dresses a character. For her, costume is how a character’s history and inner life become visible. In 2025, she styled two films from Studio Dalaga (@studio.dalaga), the Manila-based practice of filmmaker sister duo Gabriela and Mariana Serrano: 𝘌𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘢 𝘌𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘢 𝘌𝘭𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘦 (2025), a retro-future pop star drama, and 𝘚𝘶𝘳𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘛𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 (2025), a magical realist retelling of the siren legend and winner of Best Short at the 2026 QCShorts Competition.

She speaks to us about her process from script to screen, her collaborations with directors and crew and her move from styling toward costume design.
