Dos Carolinas

Handcrafted Bespoke Guayaberas

Caroline Matthews personifies creative energy. In the early days of Dos Carolinas, Caroline did most of the work herself, from designing unique guayaberas to sewing pristine pin-tucks. With 30+ years of experience, she still does fittings for clientele and personally sees to the day-to-day operations of the workroom. Caroline is the beating heart of Dos Carolinas, and demand for her bespoke casual shirts is booming.

More About Us

“Caroline Matthew caters mostly to men with her hand-tailored guayaberas. Stay cool in the Texas heat with the designer’s high-end take on this classic Latin American plantation worker’s shirt.”

 

National Geographic

“Long-time San Antonio resident Caroline Matthews elevated the guayabera with luxe cotton fabric options, a tailored fit, and intricate, custom designs when she started her made-to-order line, Dos Carolinas, in 1987. With a flagship store at San Antonio’s Pearl development and a studio in Houston, Matthews is putting thousands of Texas men in her designs each year.”

 

Texas Monthly

“Texas’ Dos Carolinas turns guayaberas a— Latin American wardrobe staple—into bespoke works of art.”
