The Philippine Women's Association in Hawaii proudly presented their 8th Filipiniana Ball, a vibrant celebration of Filipino culture and heritage. The event showcased stunning traditional outfits from the three major regions of the Philippines—Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao—each reflecting the rich diversity and craftsmanship unique to their respective areas. From the elegant barong tagalog and terno of Luzon to the colorful patadyong and intricately woven textiles of the Visayas, and the bold, symbolic patterns from the indigenous groups of Mindanao, the ball highlighted the beauty and cultural significance of Filipino attire.
