IN PHOTOS: What people wore at SONA 2017
(UPDATED) See what Heart Evangelista, Jinkee Pacquiao, and other officials and their partners wore to the SONA 2017

MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) – For President Rodrigo Duterte’s second State of the Nation Address (SONA), politicians and their partners gathered at the Batasang Pambansa on Monday, July 24, mostly dressed in traditional wear.

Just like in 2016, guests were asked to dress in simple outfits, preferably in business attire. The lawmakers who were invited to the program wore barongs or Filipiniana dresses that were beautiful but not too extravagant.
