Here Are Our Favorites from the ‘Pamana’ Collection of Plains & Prints
Retail giant Plains & Prints has just launched a collection that truly celebrates the richness and beauty of Filipino culture and history through modern fashion.
Dubbed as Pamana, the series allows its clientele to ‘wear the Filipino heritage’ through daily pieces. Truly chronicling the Filipino legacy through style, the selection features different facets of #PinoyPride such as the old Filipino writing system called baybayin, the Filipino architecture, and even the Philippines’ national formalwear.
Here are some of our favorites from the collection.
