Barong

The Barong is a traditional Filipino shirt often worn during special occasions and formal events. Made from lightweight, sheer fabric like pineapple or jusi fiber, it features intricate embroidery and is typically worn over an undershirt. The design is inspired by Filipino heritage and history, symbolizing elegance and cultural pride. While it resembles a formal shirt, the Barong is unique to Filipino identity and craftsmanship. Its breathable material makes it suitable for tropical climates, and it is often paired with dress pants for weddings, ceremonies, or important gatherings.
