Filipino national costume is rather colorful, ornate and beautiful. Filipino people lived under the occupation of other countries for centuries. That's why their national attire was formed under the influence of different cultures and got some of their features. US, Spain and Japan had the biggest impact on the traditional clothing of the Philippines. But nevertheless Filipino folk dress is very unique, authentic and even tribal, if we can say so.

Finally did one of my dream shoots. 🥰💖 Channeling the elegance of our heritage with a Maria Clara gown, a traditional Filipino dress named after José Rizal’s iconic character from the novel Noli Me Tangere. A timeless symbol of Filipino culture and grace. 🌸🇵🇭 #MariaClara Also obligatory @jollibee run after a whole afternoon of shooting content. 🤪 Yipee 🐝
