The History of Crocodile Print in the Philippines

Object Rewind E01: Crocodile In Style

 

Animal print has always been a staple in human fashion. In the Philippines, we coexisted with the crocodile, and it sometimes appeared in what we used and wore.

But greedy politicians and basketball players have given the reptile a bad rap. In this episode, we will sink our teeth into the skin of the feared and revered crocodile.

 

ABOUT OBJECT REWIND:
