I kind of like the one in the middle but with the skirt/trail modified so it is less bouffant but more figure conscious.



More like this modified Maria Clara-inspired version by Patis Tesoro:

I guess the above have become such departures from the original Generation X, Y latest gadgets, accessories and kikay stuff envisioned by michaelsinjin when he created this thread.

i actually saw some catholic african natives or jamaican i think, basta black wearing Maria Clara's dress at church. then, i wonder if we copied that from some nation, or they copied it from us. but then, i know it shouldnt be coming from them because they were blacks. i meant they didnt have a decent civilization 'till the late 60's.

Perhaps those are really colonial costumes. I see a lot of Latino men wearing short sleeve barongs with the embroidery on the lapel.

The Maria Clara terno will only look good to tall women with long necks, just like Imelda Marcos.

FYI, it's called a Guayabera. I own one, given to me as a gift by a Cuban friend of mine.

Lili, don't you know that you can look delicate and powerful at the sametime. It's like steel magnolias.
Then go for something very simple and one color. When wearing a Monochromatic dress, especially white, try to have an accessory that is patterned and more colorful, like a flower. Do you want to wear a non patterned Maria Clara? I haven't seen that before. The simplicity would be inspiring. If you do wear a non-patterned dress, wear something patterened over you shoulders.
Wow, it's like we're planning your wedding.
