Filipino lifestyle brand Sinelas.atbp is deepening its commitment to artisan empowerment and cultural preservation as it continues to work closely with indigenous communities while preparing to expand into ready-to-wear fashion.
As part of its latest community initiatives, the brand recently conducted a design and craftsmanship workshop with T’boli artisans in Lake Sebu, strengthening collaborations aimed at preserving traditional craftsmanship while creating sustainable livelihood opportunities for local communities.
Beyond product development, Sinelas.atbp also extended support to the community by donating school supplies and backpacks to children from T’boli families, reinforcing the brand’s advocacy for education alongside its social enterprise efforts.
The company said it remains committed to promoting slow fashion through handcrafted products inspired by Philippine heritage. Its latest collaboration with fashion designer Jared Servano focuses on developing footwear designs that celebrate indigenous artistry, with the second collection expected to be unveiled soon.
Leading the brand is Amy Revilla, who continues to champion Filipino craftsmanship by building long-term partnerships with artisan communities across the country. Revilla has also brought together designer Jared Servano and his daughter, Sofia Jude, for an upcoming collaboration that blends indigenous influences with contemporary fashion.
The collaboration forms part of Sinelas.atbp’s broader vision of connecting traditional craftsmanship with modern design while creating more opportunities for local artisans.
One of the brand’s biggest upcoming projects is the launch of “At Iba Pa,” an expansion of the Sinelas.atbp lifestyle concept into the ready-to-wear category. The new line aims to complement the brand’s handcrafted footwear while continuing to highlight Filipino creativity and cultural identity.
According to Revilla, the company’s mission has always extended beyond producing fashion products.
“Sinelas.atbp has always been about more than fashion. By working closely with the artisans of Lake Sebu and collaborating with creative visionaries like Jared Servano and Sofia Jude, the brand continues to build meaningful connections between culture, craftsmanship, and community. As Sinelas.atbp prepares to launch ‘At Iba Pa,’ supporters can look forward to a new chapter that further celebrates Filipino artistry while creating opportunities for the communities that inspire it.”
Since its founding, Sinelas.atbp has positioned itself as a lifestyle brand that combines fashion with social impact, working alongside artisan communities to preserve traditional craftsmanship while providing sustainable economic opportunities.
