Showing off - my FH's Barong Tagalog

If he's Italian American why is he wearing a Filipino formal shirt.

Because I am Filipino

.

It's very handsome!

That's so cool!

I love it.

@OP very cool! I was just confused haha

That's awesome!

My FFIL and all of FH's uncles are wearing one for the ceremony.

Very cool! Great way to mix cultures

I love it!

It's beautiful! Love the embroidery detail.

My fiancé is Filipino, and the entire wedding party as well as him will be wearing Barongs. His uncle is getting him a custom one from the Philippines, I am so excited to see it! Your FH's looks great!

Awesome!

I also clicked on this post with some slight trepidation about what I might see, but am glad to learn that a Barong is a shirt. It looks great!

Very nice!

Barong Tagalogs are Filipino men's formal wear (Philippines = HOT & HUMID). Traditionally made of pineapple fibers with lots of intricate embroidery. My brother-in-law (who isn't Filipino) wore a tux during their wedding ceremony and a barong Tagalog for the reception - a lot more comfortable than a three-piece suit, but still considered formal.

My FH (non-Filipino), BIL(non-Filipino), son, and nephew will also be wearing barongs at the reception, and tuxes during the ceremony.

I was in the Philippines on vacation in January and was able to pick them up. FH looks so handsome in his!

Nice.
