This costume is inspired by Kabyawan, an annual thanksgiving festival in Cabiao, Nueva Ecija that celebrates the town’s agricultural heritage and honors the kabyawan, a traditional carabao-driven stone mill used in sugarcane production. At first glance, the design highlights sugarcane, representing its importance as a primary industry of the town.

As the costume unfolds, it reveals the richness of Cabiao’s harvest—palay, mais, mangga, fishes, and the gilingan ng tubo, with the carabao symbolizing strength and resilience. This transformation reflects the connection between a single crop and the community’s overall abundance.

Crafted in earthy tones with textured patterns and embroidery, and crowned by the sun, it symbolizes hope, prosperity, and gratitude to the farmers.
