This Orchid Fashions shirt is a luminous slice of retro island charm, featuring a high-contrast purple-and-blue hibiscus motif that blooms boldly against a creamy white backdrop. Made in Hawaii, this silky polyester piece evokes sunset strolls and balmy beach evenings with every glance.
The crisp camp collar and single-needle construction point to quality craftsmanship, while the off-center print layout adds dynamic movement to the floral border design. Rich violet orchids and cerulean hibiscus wrap around the hem and shoulders in a mirrored arrangement, interspersed with leafy teal palms and the occasional discreet "Aloha" script—subtle branding integrated into the print itself.
A welt pocket sits on the chest—rare in modern Aloha shirts—adding tailored flair, even though its print alignment doesn’t match the body. Translucent buttons lend a soft finish without distracting from the vivid palette. The polyester fabric feels smooth and breathable with a slight sheen, maintaining its vibrancy over time.
This shirt is in excellent pre-owned condition with no stains, holes, or notable wear. A scarce midsize floral from a lesser-seen heritage maker, perfect for collectors seeking authentic Made-in-Hawaii pieces that deliver both quality and visual punch.
Don’t miss your chance to grab this rare archival floral from the golden era of Hawaiian shirt design.
