On Monday, October 12, Catriona Gray shared “a glimpse into the life Zamboangueña in the 1700s” on her Facebook page. She shared several photos of herself wearing the Mascota, the traditional formal gown of Zamboanguenas.
She said the Mascota is made up of six (6) elements: the copiño (silk or cotton slip), candongga (panuelo), renggue, sobre falda (tapis), cola (the skirt), and enaguas (inner lining of the skirt).
“Without just one of these elements, it is not a mascota. The designer Erich Miñoza derived his inspiration from a traditional Chavacano song “Cucurukuk Cucudia,” she added.
