Assumption Iloilo Family Day 2010 'Parade of Nations', October 24, 2010

The theme of 'Family Day 2010' was 'Families Around the World'. After the Mass, Assumption Iloilo students, facilitators, and parents gathered in front of the Centennial Sports Complex ( CSC ) for the foot parade.

Since the event coincided with the founding anniversary of the United Nations Organization ( UN ), those who joined the parade were wearing the national costume of the country of their choice.

Since I didn't have much time to prepare, I just went for a Hawaiian-inspired outfit. It wasn't a stand-out but at least I followed what was expected from us. 

Seeing different national ensembles in a parade was a big wow. Most of these costumes filled in the element of their country's pride. That corseted shorts-bodysuit, that wondrous and very elaborate cape, and that 'Rio Carnival Queen' costume! More of these in the future, please!
