The country's top two leaders typify simplicity.
Both hold their oath-taking today, June 30, and the words to describe their separate inaugurations are "modest," "low key," and "frugal."
The President's wardrobe was actually the least of his concerns, nonetheless, People's Television posted on Twitter a few details:

SIMPLICITY AT ITS BEST. Even the President's children went minimalist on their outfits courtesy of Mindanaoan designers.
Sara's (second from right) royal-blue terno was a creation of Silverio Anglacer.
Paolo's barong was designed by Erwin Lee Tan, while Baste's (left) barong was made out of Mindanaoan silk woven from Laguindingan, Misamis Oriental, by Davao Fashion and Design Council (DFDC).
Robredo's daughters Aika, Jill, and Tricia followed a black and white theme for their Filipiniana dresses designed by Paul Cabral.
