 More recently, Chavacano men have adapted to wearing the formal Barong Tagalog, worn by men throughout the Philippines.Zamboangueño women claim ownership of the "mascota", a formal gown with a fitting bodice, her shoulders draped demurely by a luxuriously embroidered, though stiff, panuelo and fastened at the breast by a brooch or a medal.The skirt tapers down from the waist but continues on to an extended trail called the "cola".
