Quentin Tarantino goes Filipino to the Golden Globes announcements

Whoever designed this… you’re gonna be famous (if not already)!

Quentin was gifted with a ‘TESORO’S” barong by the National Commission of Culture and the Arts Executive Director. Cecilia Guidote-Alvarez and by the Film Development Council of the Philippines vice-Chair Christine Dayrit. The Director was presented the 24 hour executed, custom-made barong for his courtesy call to the Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Tesoro Barongs can be ordered on-line at http://www.tesoros.ph. There is an on-going promotion right now with very good prices to be had for a wide selection of barongs for men and women.
