Custom Dion in Aroo Pinilian, a bold reinterpretation of our signature silhouette from the Abra Collection—now crafted entirely in the richly symbolic Aroo Pinilian textile from Ilocos. Known for its intricate brocade weave, the Aroo design features bold, contrast-woven motifs that embody protection, heritage, and identity. This custom piece features side pockets, a fully lined interior, and snap closures for modern function and ease.

Details:

• Textile: Aroo Pinilian from Ilocos

• Closure: Snap buttons for a clean, minimalist look

• Features: Side pockets, full interior lining

• Design Origin: Dion style from the Abra Collection

• Symbolism:
  The Pinilian weaving technique, which means “chosen” or “to pick”, is known for its hand-picked supplementary weft designs. The Aroo pattern, in particular, draws from Ilocano tradition—often believed to symbolize protection and status. Every motif is manually lifted and woven by hand, making each piece a labor of love and intention.
