Benguet Ibaloy with American tourist

Ibaloy women wear brightly colored clothes: a jacket (kambal), a wraparound skirt (aten or divet) with horizontal designs, and a belt (donas). Checks and stripes are common, as are combinations of red and black, white and dark blue, and red and white (CCP Encyclopedia, Vol. l, 266).
