I still canโt believe I made this. ๐ฅนโจ
When I started working on โLawig sang Karbaw,โ I honestly had no idea how it would turn out. There were nights I wanted to give up ,moments full of doubt, stress, and uncertainty. But I reminded myself why I started , to honor the spirit of Pavia and the hardworking farmers who represent true strength and perseverance. ๐๐พ
This piece isnโt just fashion; itโs a story. A story of struggle, dedication, and pride. Every thread tells something about our culture, our roots, and our people. Creating this reminded me that even the simplest inspiration , like the rope of a carabao , can become something beautiful when made with heart and purpose. ๐
Iโm beyond proud of how far Iโve come, and this experience taught me that growth happens when you push past fear and believe in yourself.
Huge thanks to my incredible models, Dino Jagna-an and Shaira Bigata , for perfectly bringing my vision to life. You both carried this piece with grace and power , I couldnโt have asked for better people to represent my work. ๐
โLawig sang Karbawโ will forever be a reminder that passion and perseverance can turn a dream into something real. ๐
