I'm featuring antique/vintage dresses worn by my Cuenco relatives. These antique Filipina gowns and clothes are now gone. My aunt, Teresita Cuenco Gonzalez, told me that during World War II in Cebu, they cut up the old gowns to make into other dresses to sell, to help them survive.Take the time to study these antique/vintage dresses. They come from a time that is no more.
The top picture is my mother, Concepcion Cuenco. My mother is the one in the middle of the children's picture.
