Flora, Apayao - In a vibrant display of homage to the farmers and carabaos of Flora, the minds behind the municipality's Creative Attire worn by its candidates for ‘Dayag ken Taer ti Apayao 2024’ have crafted a stunning attire that captures the essence of agricultural life while celebrating the majestic Lagac Pinsal Falls.
The attire of Flora’s ‘Dayag’, Yna Yjalei Acido Tapo paid tribute to the town’s agricultural prosperity, while exuding a welcoming and lively energy.
Driven by the vibrant fields and abundant harvests that define Flora's landscape, the selected color scheme embodies the earthy hues of the agricultural terrain. From deep greens to sunny yellows, warm browns, and skin-toned tones, the palette is further elevated with touches of bold red and refreshing blue, paying homage to the protective scarecrows.
The clothing's silhouette perfectly embodies both functionality and refinement, evoking the strong and hardworking lifestyle of farmers. The use of sturdy materials such as cotton and linen reflect the unyielding nature of the agriculture industry, while playful elements inspired by carabaos and farm tools add a whimsical and celebratory aura to the outfit.
Accessories play a dual role, not only enhancing the overall look but also serving a functional purpose. The mortar and pestle, iconic to agricultural life, epitomize the utilitarian aspect. Similarly, a two-tiered straw hat with a wide brim not only shields from the scorching rays of the sun but also adds a touch of rustic sophistication to the outfit.
The back phase of the attire is intricately crafted, taking inspiration from the stunning hues of Lagac Pinsal Falls and its lush surroundings. The cascading waters and verdant foliage are prominent, capturing the tranquil beauty of this hidden gem. Shades of earthy greens and grays mirror the rocky terrain, while pops of hyperborean vitality enhance the overall design.
This creative attire celebrates the deep connection between farmers and their carabaos, highlighting their collaborative efforts in cultivating the land and ensuring food security for the community. It embodies qualities of resilience, hard work, and respect for the land, serving as a tribute to the enduring spirit of Flora's agricultural heritage.

In a dazzling display of Flora's cultural richness, Zeid Corpuz Batacan proudly showcases a blue-green themed creative attire inspired by Lagac Pinsal of Barangay Sta. Maria. Lagac Pinsal stands as one of Flora's hidden gems, renowned for its breathtaking blue waterfalls and rich biodiversity.
The attire pays homage to the remarkable camaraderie between farmers and their trusty companions, the carabaos, symbolizing hard work, perseverance, and the deep-rooted love of every Floranian. It captures the essence of Flora's Kabinnulig Festival, where the winning float proudly displays this enduring partnership amidst a backdrop of traditional weaving and intricate designs that reflect the town's cultural heritage.
Moreover, the attire celebrates Apayao's indigenous contributions to national biodiversity conservation, with symbols like the Philippine eagle soaring amidst the lush forests of Apayao, serving as a testament to the town's rich cultural tapestry and environmental stewardship.
Batacan's creative attire not only captivates with its aesthetic beauty but also serves as a reminder of Flora's cultural vibrancy and the enduring bond between its people, their land, and their traditions.
The local government unit of Flora led by Mayor Rodolfo B. Juan extends their all-out support to Tapo and Batacan as they compete for the crowns and titles in the provincial search slated for February 13, 2024.
