For the opening of the 17th Congress at the Senate in the morning, Senator Loren Legarda wears a cotton chambray coat with intricate embroidery of T’boli traditional patterns embroidered by T’bolis from Barangay Seloton, Lake Sebu, South Cotabato. She is also wearing shoes made from Marikina.

 

The coat was designed by Len Cabili, who was born in Iligan and is the Founder and Creative Director of Filip + Inna, a local brand that collaborates with indigenous artisans to create contemporary clothing using traditional designs.
