India - Cummerbunds originated in India, where people customarily wore sashes around their waists. In India, they are known as "kamarbands" as "kamar" means "waist" in Hindi. In the 1850s, English soldiers stationed in India began adopting the waist sash as formal wear because traditional vests were way too hot in the Indian heat. This British military fashion caught on and, as tuxedos became popular, a matching black cummerbund was embraced.
