Fashion Investment: PIOPIO Offers Chic Ensembles Made of Filipino Indigenous Fabrics

Filipino lifestyle brand PIOPIO has always been about celebrating the beauty, talent and power of the Philippines.

Paloma Urquijo Zobel first fell in love with Inabel, a hand-woven textile sourced from Ilocos, back in 2016. The material inspired her so much that, after many years of being based in the USA and Europe, the visionary decided to stay for good in her homeland the Philippines. This was so she could start a clothing line made entirely of Filipino indigenous fabrics.

PIOPIO, which means “tweet tweet” in Spanish, was then born. The fashion line has since empowered weavers and crafters from different parts of the Philippines with its local sourcing matched with modern clothing designs and chic marketing approach. PIOPIO has since evolved into a lifestyle brand. 

If you’re looking to invest in exquisite fashion pieces exuding some precious culture and heritage, PIOPIO is a good brand to start with. Not only are you going to keep fashion staples that will pass the test of time, but you’re also empowering Filipino creators and uplifting Filipino indigenous materials.
