Felt like drawing Lyka and Nicole in dresses!
Lyka's outfit is an amalgamation/synthesis of dresses I found online. Nicole's is more specifically based on the Filipino baro't saya. Hopefully I did it justice in this interpretation.

So hi, I saw this post on Twitter and I decided, hey, I wanna do that. So I did.
Below you will see my desperate attempt to reconnect with my culture (through HXH) because God knows I suck at my own mother tongue.
First we have Feitan and Shizuku in Barong Tagalog and Baro't Saya. (I included noiseless and noise version.)
Next, we have Chrollo and Pakunoda in Barong Tagalog (Modernized) and Filipiniana (Modernized as well). I actually based Paku's outfit off a Filipiniana I had in 7th grade.
What Pakunoda is holding is La Campana, a local cigar that is actually produced where I live! Pretty interesting stuff. (I also added the noiseless and noise version).
This is not quite what I was planning to post once November hits but I will get around that big piece (I already finished inking one whole page, 4 to go)! Hope you enjoy!
Before I end this post, my friend @colecxre-17 came up with Filipino names for them for fun:
- Don Felipe 'Feitan' Portugal
- Shiela 'Shizuku' Muñoz
- Christian 'Choochoo/Chrollo' Luchavez
- Pamela 'Pakunoda' Palomares
Okay this is the end of the post, see you on the next one!

DAY 1: National Outfits #POSTITNOTEMBER
The national outfits of the Philippines is the Baro't saya and the Barong
•Expensive dresses, the ones made for novelty (mestizos) are made with the fiber of piña, and because of this, the clothes are transparent and people had to wear undergarments (Corpiño and Enaguas for girls and Camisan or camiseta for boys)
•Baro't saya has 4 parts:
a. the baro or camisa (blouse)
b. the saya or falda (skirt)
c. kerchief or panuelo (the cloth placed on the shoulders)
d. tapis or patadyong (the cloth warpped around the waist)
•the 4 types Filipiniana
a. Maria Clara/traje de mestiza - bell shaped sleeves, long saya, aristocratic.
b. Visayan kimona - poncho like baro, patadyong.
(Before the spanish came, women only needed to wear the patadyong, the saya was introduced by the spanish because the patadyong was considered too short)
c. Terno - most modernized, butterfly sleeves, unionized dress, american coloial era. Imelda Marcos style
d. Balintawak - more casual, shorter skirt, butterfly sleeves, colorful, paired with a tapis and a bandana.
•aristocratic women avoided using the tapis/patadyong as it connected to pre colonial roots
•pechara is the rectangular swction on the front of the Barong tagalog
Variations of the Barong Tagalog
•Barong Mahaba- oldest type of baro (spanish colonial era), can be striped with bold colors (RBB), no buttons, high collars and elizabthian ruffs and cravat, worn with trousers, top hats, and corchos shoes.
•Barro Cerrada- mid 19th century, (closed baro), neck collar, opaque material, ussually worn with white pants, untucked
•Pinukpok - coat like, worn by village leaders and governors, abaca material
•Pierre Cardia -Ferdinand Marcos' style, close fitting, oversized collars ( Elvis Presly collars) cuffs, flared sleeves and pants
•Polo Barong- modernized Barong, short sleeves, either made from linen, cotton or ramie. Least formal but is used as uniforms in schools and offices.
•Gusót mayaman - wrinkled shirt of the rich, line barong, can be used as office wear.
During the american colonial era, the Barong fell out of style, the most common attire for filipino men at the time was the Americana and othe western suits and tuxes.
