Custom Filipiniana by Josip Tumapa Design

Every custom Filipiniana at Josip Tumapa Design is created for a specific occasion. The silhouette, sleeve construction, fabric, and fit are planned around the event — whether a wedding, debut ceremony, pageant, or cultural presentation.

Josip Tumapa works directly with each client through two consultations before production begins. In these meetings, Josip Tumapa reviews the design and confirms the proportions with the client.

For Josip, the foundation of a well-made dress is care for the work itself.

Filipiniana designs by Josip Tumapa have received awards and recognition in competitive fashion and cultural events in the Philippines.

For events with a fixed date, the studio recommends starting three months in advance. Bespoke orders are accepted no later than six weeks before the intended wear date.

Josip Tumapa Design works with clients in the Philippines and abroad on made-to-order custom Filipiniana dresses.
