Kat Williford

Kat Williford is the founder and designer of Pamut Apparel. She is passionate about soft fabrics, simple designs, and washable clothing that fits easily into her busy lifestyle.

Kat studied at the Savannah College of Art and Design, after which she began her career as a designer at a mall brand. She soon became disenchanted with the fashion industry at-large, and imagined an alternative where she could produce small-batch, ethically made clothing. Kat moved to Budapest, Hungary in search of inspiration and a different lifestyle in 2014. She began sewing and screenprinting tops out of her small flat in the city, and was able to reconnect with the art of making clothing by hand.

A native of Raleigh, Kat moved back to her hometown in 2017. She is proud of her growing city and is excited that Pamut is able to continue in a long tradition of local clothing manufacturing while bringing in the elements of size inclusivity and low waste production. She is a new mom and is learning how to balance motherhood and entrepreneurship, her biggest challenge yet!
