Local organic and/or "ethic" fashion seems to be a niche still in need to be filled in the Philippines. There is hope though, and I would love to see the amazing and good stuff from Filip+Inna more readily available here.
Filip+Inna is inspired by tradition, intertwined with the contemporary. Filip+Inna brings into each garment ancient techniques of weaving, embroidery and bead work from different indigenous groups of the Philippines, preserving ancient traditions that are in danger of becoming lost, working with many groups of talented artisans across the Archipeloago, giving them an opportunity to improve their livelihoods.
Available in the Philippines at Istie Bitsie in Rockwell or online at L-atitude. Check it out, it is all just amazingly beautiful.
