Alooooha! With this piece, I honestly don’t know where to begin. It is easily one of the most jaw-dropping Hawaiians I have ever seen in all my years of collecting! Original 1940s cool violet purple with neon chartreuse cold rayon Hawaiian hourglass sarong dress and matching cropped bolero by “Watumull’s Honolulu!”
- Marching cropped bolero that hooks at the neck with a hidden hook and eye
- The dress features a back metal zipper with hook and eye closure
- The bodice of the dress is fully lined in cotton voile, with built in structural boning
- Thin halter strap that hooks on one side with a hidden hook and eye, can also be tucked in and worn completely strapless as well
- Sweetheart neckline with gathering in the middle of the bust, tailored and beautifully fitted bodice
- Nipped defined wasp waist
- Slim pencil skirt with radiating pleats coming from the center abdomen in a very 1940s glamour style, with double draped sash down the front middle from the belly button
- Total sexy bombshell hourglass silhouette
- The exotic floral print in neon chartreuse is of Hawaiian anthuriums
- I cannot stress how vibrant these colors are in person, the photos do not do this piece justice
