EN: to wear a head covering; to veil
Think of lolas going to church early in the morning, with a delicate veil or 'alampay' covering their hair. It’s an act of reverence and tradition. It's the classic church-goer look, a sign of respect and modesty. It's the OG 'cottagecore' aesthetic before it was cool.
Primarily associated with religious contexts, especially Catholic traditions of women covering their heads in church.
