29 Aug 09 - 03:45 PM (#2711652) Subject: RE: BS: your favorite Hawaian shirts From: Q (Frank Staplin) I collected Hawaiian shirts from goodwill-Sally Ann shops in Hawai'i, but about 1990, as they became sought after on the mainland and a book about them came out, those with interesting and rare patterns disappeared from second-hand stores and started showing up on Ebay and in boutiques at much elevated prices. The most sought after and expensive are some of the old rayons but for wearing I prefer the well-made cotton Reyn-Spooner shirts, which I still wear during the brief summer here in Canada. Some silks were also sewn in Hawai'i. |

I visited my brother shortly thereafter. When I came in for breakfast one morning my sister-in-law asked if I had borrowed my shirt from him. He was in Hawaii FIFTEEN YEARS before, and of all the patterns in all the shops over all the years, he had purchased the very same shirt. |

30 Aug 09 - 11:09 PM (#2712619) Subject: RE: BS: your favorite Hawaian shirts From: Q (Frank Staplin) On Hawaiian shirts, I have seen buttons made of cocoanut shell, mother of pearl, wood, ceramic, brass, and ever-lovely plastic. In repairing some of my older Hawaiian shirts, this has meant searching the flea markets for buttons that might match when one is missing. The old brass buttons with Kamehameha's profile are very hard to replace. Friday in Honolulu is the day to go to the legislative building and look at all the various Hawaiian shirts and mumu's that the capitol workers are wearing. Ties, etc. are discouraged on that day. |
