The Melchora Skirt is a unique wrap-around skirt in muted colour tones that you can easily mix-and-match with any piece you have. Its uneven length is inspired by how our ancestors wore the tapis on top of a longer skirt, creating a unique Filipino style.

Kinabuhi wants to embody this uniquely Filipino look by taking elements of these traditional pieces and combining them with modern styles. We aimed to create pieces that could become closet staples and are easy to style and wear again and again for years to come. We use different layers of fabrics and patterns combining deadstock commercial and printed deadstock fabrics with a special handwoven accent designed by Damgo Textiles.

This skirt is part of the Tira Tira Collection where we make use of upcycled textile waste, zero-waste weaves, and fabric scraps to highlight our circularity efforts and make sure that nothing goes to waste.

* The fabric patterns will vary based on the available fabric scraps and deadstock fabrics but will follow the selected color palette.

About the Weave
Wash & Care Guide

All ANTHILL items are made of artisanal hands using hand- loomed fabrics as the focal material. Every piece goes through a slow and rigorous production process. As it is handmade, each weave is unique and you might find inconsistencies on the fabric. We trust that you understand the intricacies of every weave and find beauty in the imperfections.

All weaves used in our apparel line are test washed based on color fastness and shrinkage. As most of these fabrics are a blend of cotton and polyester, they are safe to be machine-washed. If unsure, always play safe and go with hand wash.

WASHING. You may hand wash or machine wash your apparel weaves in cold water using mild detergent at low spin cycle. Hang the clothes to air dry. Zero waste weaves and weaves in natural fiber must be hand washed in cold water.

IRONING. Always set your iron in low to medium heat. Use a spray bottle and spray water to straighten out the wrinkles. Turn the garment inside out when ironing.
