Binakol Bra Top and High Waist Skirt Set

Ready-to-Wear

The patterns of Binakol cloths are ancient, and are dizzying on purpose. Traditionally, the Ilokanos and the Itneg communities from Northern Luzon made blankets in this design. Mathematically precise, the counting is done in the weavers' minds without a manual or guide. The blankets in the dizzying designs, are intentionally done to confuse and distract the evil spirits, thus protecting the sleeping souls. 

The Binakol weave we use here is sourced directly from the skilled weavers of Ifugao Nation, and has been woven in a lighter shirt weight. 

A little bit of handloomed heritage on a saucy bra top and skirt set paired with a stretchy, comfy jersey crepe in a complimentary bright orange. The Bra Top is a pull over bandeau, and the skirt has a comfy elastic waist and a center back zipper. 

Each Binakol Bra Top and Skirt Set is handcrafted by the VINTA Gallery team in our atelier in the Philippines.
