GENERAL SANTOS CITY – Since childhood, this 29-year old Tboli teacher dreamt of someday becoming a unique fashion designer to put the limelight on the Tboli as having a distinct culture that they can be proud of.
It took her two days to conceptualize the design and put together the dried banana leaves which they gathered. She then sought the help of her photographer cousin Rommy Usman, also a Tboli, to take pictures which they posted on Facebook. “You cannot strut around during pictorials wearing marijuana, we might get arrested,” she said, laughing.
She narrated that since they started in 2019, she had worn leaves in a photoshoot that turned out to be the itchy kind. “I want to scratch myself all over, but I cannot in front of the camera! Tiis ganda na lang,” she recalled. Four years after first coming into the open and getting exposure on social media with her leaf-inspired apparels, Ganuan has drawn the attention of some media outfits, featuring her works in their respective media outlets.
