Famous fashion designer Nono Palmos has created hanbok by using stylish hand-woven Philippine fabrics called hablon, which contain banana fiber (jusi), pineapple fiber (pina) and indigenous materials.
Palmos also used another hand woven fabric called bagong habi, a combination of pineapple fabric and dupion silk.
During fashion show, models wore several bridal wears but Palmos' collection was giving different appeal than the others.
Palmos displayed many hanboks but the hanbok with three layers of skirts in pink, lavender and cream was very popular and attractive.
Apart from the hanbok, hand-embroidered wedding gown inspired by Spanish style was also exhibited.
