The state-owned television network on Wednesday shared photos of the barong Tagalog that President-elect Rodrigo Duterte would be wearing in his inauguration on Thursday.
On its Twitter account, People’s Television Network shared photos of the barong designed by Aris Escarilla of Chardin, a high-end clothes shop in Davao City.
Chardin previously said they prepared 12 barong Tagalog for Duterte to choose from.
Also posted were photos of swatches for corduroy pants and “Du30 buttons” used in the barong.
PTV-4 also shared photos of Duterte with designer Chard Pulache and his “favorite master cutter” Manong Hermie Balagon.
