Guayaberas, also known as Mexican Wedding Shirts, originate from Latin America. Guayaberas impart a very casual, comfortable, yet refined fashion to men who wear them. I myself wore a guayabera shirt to my cousin’s (relaxed yet tasteful and fun) wedding a few years ago and received many compliments!

Cuban legend says that a poor seamstress sewn a number of extra pockets onto her husbands shirts in order for him to carry more guavas (or guayabas). Actually, these guayaberas shirts have near-worldwide renown: in Britain and Australia, they’re known as safari shirts. Mexicans also know them as Yucatans.
