This styles in Barbados clothing guide gives a general idea of the way of dress and clothing in Barbados, things you can consider wearing and where and some dos & don’ts.

Meaningless! “...because the best thing anyone of us can do is wear what we feel and look wonderful in…” Agreed! This guide is just possibly helpful, it highlights dressing tips to survive the heat.

Fashion is fun! Is it really? It can be. “Rationalising?” Helping us to remain fresh in our look and suitable for any affair, THANK GOODNESS for a few classics- no need to spend all of our time “rationalising”, like this.

We all know what goes around comes around, sometimes with more flare. Your perfect selection for any occasion dwells with your taste, style and whether the item is practical.

Not all fashions suit all of us but there are quite of few where none of us can go wrong. On our pages to follow, we give you a short list of clothing items to pack on your trip to Barbados or any tropical destination. Along with a “classic” which adds support to the clothes you pack or suggests the only item you will need from that category.

Before we move on to our mini "In Barbados Clothing Guide" however, here are some basics to bear in mind.



Dress

Generally speaking, Barbadians dress in a proud personal style. A casual walk through Bridgetown is a good testimony to this statement. Outside of typical business attire, you will see fashion inspired outfits of all types and some very spiffy ones I may add.

Ladies are usually well made-up and wear stylishly fitted attire, ranging from classic and conservative to ultra modern. Men wear largely casual pants in different makes and personally inspired shirts to convey their image.

Any advice…dress to survive this extremely warm climate, with dress-in-general tips perfect for tropical circumstances.


Dress-in-general tips to survive the heat:

1. Choose clothing made of cotton, light linens, and other synthetic materials--avoid heavy linens and silks.

2. Favour white and light colours (neutrals and pastel tones) and bright colours in light materials. Pass-up dark colours, avoid absorbing additional heat.

3. Refrain from wearing extremely tight or clingy clothing which is often intolerable in the heat and lends to nothing but misery.


Do’s and Don’ts Check list

Some fundamentals to assist you in happily expressing your style in clothing while dressing in Barbados.

Do’s

  • Do wear what you are most comfortable in at anytime, nothing looks better or makes you look more attractive than what makes you comfortable.

  • Do feel free to abandon too much clothing during the day, and celebrate your status of tourist …the meaning of vacation and being laid back… if not, it can get pretty steaming hot!
  • Don’ts

  • Don’t go into stores scantily dressed in swim wear without a shirt or a swim suit without a wrap, this is offensive.

  • Don’t wear camouflage clothes -- this too is offensive and reserved only for military officials on the island.
