The LA crowd, seeing the "Barong" for the first time, thought the director looked too casual in his "tie-less" get-up. While Pinoys world-wide applauded Quentin for giving their native dress international exposure. According to <a href="http://tesoros.ph" rel="nofollow"> www.tesoros.ph </a> 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. The Barong Tagalog is the recommended attire when visiting the Philippine head of state. Most delegates are automatically gifted by their Filipino hosts with one. And their store of choice is Tesoro's which carries the widest assortment of barongs, with a price to suit every budget and a style to suit every taste. Tesoro's must have done such a good job as Quentin saw it fit to wear the barong again and in front of an international media event at that. Quentin's patronage of the barong will endear him in the hearts of the movie going Pinoy (Filipino) public for many years to come. The novel sartorial appearance generated equivocal comments.
