The Feeling of Kilig

Kilig Ko began as a quiet search for self a way to piece together identity, joy, and belonging through something as simple as a piece of clothing.

What started as a passion project became a love letter: to self-worth, to culture, and to anyone who’s ever felt in-between.

Kilig Ko is here to hold space for you as you become.

Why Kilig Ko?

“Kilig” — that butterfly feeling of joy, like when you see your crush or something you like

“Ko” — from ako, meaning myself, me, I am.

Together, Kilig Ko means feeling that love- that kilig for yourself.
