Embroidery in the Philippines was significantly influenced by Spanish colonial rule, which began in the 16th century. Spanish missionaries and colonizers introduced various textile techniques, including embroidery, as they sought to share European culture and craftsmanship. Over time, indigenous Filipino communities adopted and adapted these techniques, leading to the development of unique local styles, such as the intricate hand-stitched designs found in traditional garments like the Barong Tagalog and Terno.
