The influence of Spanish dress in Jamaica can be traced back to the colonial period when Spain controlled the island. Elements of traditional Spanish attire, such as vibrant colors and intricate embroidery, have been integrated into Jamaican culture, particularly in festive clothing styles. This blend is evident in local garments like the "bandana" dress, which showcases a fusion of European and African aesthetics.
