For the second time around, Perk by Kate by Kate Low returns to Manila with two iconic collections and La Pause, an immersive ice cream-themed pop-up in Manila with YOYA
Perk by Kate (PBK), Singapore’s pioneering size-inclusive luxury lingerie brand, is returning to the Philippines this August — and this time, it is coming back with a splash. For its second activation, PBK’s two iconic collections, The Mia and The Harper, will launch simultaneously alongside La Pause: an immersive ice cream-themed pop-up in which lingerie is displayed in gelato tubs, every piece of lingerie is named after a flavor, and each scoop comes with something worth keeping.
The Philippines activation marks Perk by Kate’s second visit to Manila and its first official product launch in the market — a decision that Founder Kate Low attributes directly to the extraordinary reception the brand received on its first visit in 2025.
“The warmth of the women I met in Manila stayed with me the whole flight home. When we were planning the Rituals of Return Asia launch — our two most significant collections yet — there was never a question about whether the Philippines would be part of it. This one is for you, Manila. I’ll be there.”
— Kate Low, Founder, Perk by Kate
THE COLLECTIONS
The Mia — A First-of-its-Kind Innovation
The Mia is one of Perk by Kate’s best-selling collections, and this launch introduces new styles and colors, including the Mia Push-Up Padded Camisole. It is the first of its kind: a push-up padded camisole with skinny straps and built-in lift — no bra needed. Designed to do everything — innerwear, outerwear, workwear, and slow-morning wear simultaneously — Mia is the piece the Filipina has been looking for. Available in Berry, Mocha, and Black. Available in maternity styles too. OEKO-TEX certified. Suitable for light exercise and swimming.
Harper Lace Collection — Beautiful for Every Body
Harper returns in modern lace and four new colours — Navy, Espresso, Clouddancer, and Rose — spanning three styles: the Triangle Padded Bralette for smaller busts, the Full Cup Padded Bralette for fuller figures, and the bamboo Padded Lounge Dress. PBK’s founding belief — that every woman deserves beautiful lingerie — is the foundation of every Harper style.
LA PAUSE — MANILA
La Pause Parlour is Perk by Kate’s love letter to the women who always put everyone else first. An ice cream-themed concept built around the idea of the ritual pause — where every flavor is a mood, every scoop comes with a ritual scroll, and the whole space is designed to give her back to herself.
