HERITAGE COLLECTION 2014
THE COLLECTION Inspired by the fascinating Yakan people of Basilan, famous for their beautiful weaving, the Heritage Collection is composed of limited edition, culture passionate styles for the modern woman. For the first wave of DESIGNS, the collection highlights the Bunga-sama type of weaving, which mimics the markings of the skin of the python snake.
