A highly refined shirt featuring the night blooming cereus (moonflower) motif arranged in a Hawaiian lei-inspired border pattern. Despite its limited color palette, the design delivers striking three-dimensionality and visual impact. The discharge printing technique clearly and precisely captures the distinctive characteristics of the night blooming cereus – a motif that appears time and again throughout the history of the aloha shirt.
Highly regarded among vintage collectors for its craftsmanship and design. Vintage inspiration: 1940s late period Hawaiian Togs Material: Rayon habutai (filament rayon) Print: Discharge print Design: Border pattern Made in Japan
