'Maria Clara' Filipiniana Alampay (Midnight Black) Alampay wedding day second looksThe Alampay, also known as the Kandungga or Panuelo, is the feature piece of a Maria Clara outfit, the Traje de Mestiza; the stunning shawl that wraps around Maria Clara's blouse. A modern take on the classic Maria Clara is to wear the Alampay on its own, over an evening dress or skirt & blouse ensemble. The Alampay is a subtle nod to your Filipino heritage, leaving you looking and feeling like an elegant, modern Filipina.
