    An apparel/merchandise capsule line derived from PAT McGRATH LABS. It made its first drop in 2017 as “Pat McGrath Labs Apparel 001,” offering unisex items such as bomber jackets, hoodies, T-shirts, and sweatshirts. It translated the cosmetics slogan “Wear without caution” and the brand’s iconic motifs into clothing, serving as an entry point for engaging with the world of “Labs” in a form distinct from makeup products.
