Classic Pechera Barong (Exploded Tropico I)
Description
Ready-to-Wear
The Barong, also known as Barong Tagalog, is a traditional, formal men's shirt from the Philippines. VINTA Barongs are a modern take on a beautiful tradition. The VINTA Classic Pechera Barong is made with 100% silk organza, and features the traditional half-open cut, with a new modern silhouette, cut closer to the body. The slim silhouette is achieved by adding an invisible zipper at the side seam to assist with easy pull-over.
This Classic Pechera Barong features an exploded variation of our Filipino Tropico I embroidery motif. Read about the endemic Philippine flora and fauna beautifully rendered in this piece here.
Material and Care Instructions
- Each Classic Pechera Barong is made of silk organza with coconut wood buttons. Each barong is handcrafted the VINTA Gallery team in our atelier in the Philippines. Hand-manipulated machine embroidery is also done in our atelier.
- Spot or fully hand wash with mild soap, do not wring. Dry flat not in direct sun. Dry clean only when absolutely necessary, to avoid drying out the silk (this causes the fabric to break and tear). Steam, and/or iron on low to medium heat (silk setting).
