Late 60s / Early 70s Abstract Floral Shirt – Burnt Orange & Hibiscus Print (XL)

A blazing statement from the psychedelic edge of the Aloha era, this bold shirt channels the fiery vibrancy of late 60s textile design. Crafted from thick, textured cotton with a barkcloth-like handfeel, it showcases oversized hibiscus blooms in lava-toned oranges, deep reds, and vibrant purples, set against dramatic, off-center panels that ripple with heat and energy.

The construction features a classic camp collar, single-stitch seams, and horizontal buttonholes with translucent plastic buttons—hallmarks of mid-century shirtmaking. A welt chest pocket is subtly tucked into the abstract design, its pattern intentionally unaligned for visual tension and era-authenticity. The cotton is weighty yet breathable, making it suitable for both casual wear and collector display.

Though the maker remains unknown, the styling and materials firmly root this piece in the late 60s to early 70s. The tag reads simply: “100% Cotton, Style 503, Size XL” with no RN number—a clue that this may have been a boutique or department store import during the peak of tiki culture in North America.

Extremely rare in this size and condition, this shirt stands out not just for its colorway, but for its unrelenting commitment to era-specific design. An exceptional survivor that radiates retro soul.
