1980s Nani of Hawaii Bird of Paradise Shirt – Aqua with Purple & Yellow Blooms (XL)

Vivid and silky-smooth, this 1980s Nani of Hawaii shirt captures the era’s flair for vibrant contrast and bold tropical motifs. Set against a crisp aqua blue background, this polyester piece features sweeping banana leaves layered with elegant bird of paradise blooms in electric purple and golden yellow. Smaller ivory flowers add a soft touch, creating a lush, full-coverage design that evokes the breezy drama of a sun-soaked island morning. Crafted in the USA by Tori Richard Ltd. under the Nani of Hawaii label, this shirt is made from a silky polyester with a subtle sheen and cool handfeel. The drape is soft and fluid—perfect for movement. It features a clean camp collar, translucent plastic buttons, and a welt chest pocket nestled into the oversized botanical layout. Though the pattern is off-centered and the pocket is unaligned, the print flow remains visually harmonious—typical of vintage Aloha construction from the era. With a wide shoulder cut and extra length, this XL piece is both a visual and physical standout. A hard-to-find original that blends color, comfort, and collectibility. - Chest (pit to pit): 26" - Bottom width: 24" - Length (collar seam to bottom hem): 31" - Shoulder width: 20"
