From the north and the south of the Philippine archipelago come mats that show aspects as well as the creative and artistic adjustments, nay imaginative adaptability that they display in how they are conceptualized and made. The colors, the materials, the uses, the varieties in both their common or mundane level, and their outstanding and accomplished heights are the subject of this book of Philippine mats by author Elmer Nocheseda.
HABI: The Philippine Textile Council is one of the pioneering nonprofit organizations in the Philippines that focuses its efforts towards the preservation of our local Philippine weaving heritage. Read more about their advocacy here.

Please see additional size and fit information on each garment description as sizes may vary between makers.
Fits may vary by style or personal preference; sizes may vary by manufacturer. Depending on the characteristics of the fabrics used, there could be a sizing variation of ½ inch. Most Filipiniana garments have no stretch in the fabrics. Size up if you'd like a fit with more ease.
MEASURING TIPS
• Wear similar undergarments (bra, camisole, slip, thin undershirt) as you would wear under the blouse/dress/barong while measuring.
• Have a friend or partner take the measurements (or a local tailor!)
• Keep the measuring tape snug but not tight, with the tape parallel to the floor for hip, waist, and chest measurements.
