Vintage Malihini Hawaii Psychedelic Popover Aloha Shirt
Fantastic vintage Malihini Hawaii aloha shirt featuring an exceptionally bold psychedelic abstract print in purple, turquoise, hot pink, white and lime/chartreuse.
Unlike the more common full button-front Hawaiian shirt, this piece features a distinctive popover/pullover construction with a partial button placket and pointed collar. The dramatic color combination, oversized abstract motif and unusual construction give it a strong late 1960s to early 1970s Mod, psychedelic and resortwear look.
Malihini is a recognized vintage Hawaiian clothing label, and this shirt stands out from the more traditional floral aloha styles because of its unusual popover design and highly graphic print.
