■SUN SURF Long Sleeve Rayon Habutae Hawaiian Shirt "DRAGON" SPECIAL EDITION SS29484

<Model: Height 175cm, Weight 62kg, Wearing L>
This shirt, made from thick rayon habutae fabric, features a dynamic dragon design on both the front and back,
creating a very strong impact. Artvogue of California, the company behind this piece,
excelled in back panel patterns, and this design reflects their distinctive sensibility.
During China's Yuan dynasty, only dragons with five claws and two horns on their heads were considered true dragons,
and this design was reserved exclusively for the emperor. This grand work transcends time and culture, depicting a dragon,
symbolizing the highest rank, crossing the ocean to become a motif on aloha shirts on the West Coast of America.

Artvogue of California was a company that keenly sensed the trends of the time and continuously presented innovative ideas.
Their numerous back panel patterns were one such example, and their ingenuity in conceiving and establishing this design pattern
can be considered a significant achievement in the history of aloha shirts. The company collaborated with the major fabric manufacturer Kohama to create original pieces,
sparking new trends.

<SUN SURF SPECIAL EDITION>
Aloha shirts are emblematic of Hawaiian Rakuten. Japanese immigrants were deeply involved in their origin, and beyond tropical patterns, Japanese motifs also exist as vintage pieces. By the mid-20th century, when Hawaii was established as a tourist destination, the demand for aloha shirts as souvenirs rapidly increased. Designs and patterns diversified, leading to the creation of many works. Among vintage aloha shirt collectors, truly special, rare masterpieces are sometimes discovered. In homage to the textile designers who created these masterpieces, which are gradually being lost to time, Sun Surf's Special Edition meticulously recreates their charm, including luxurious multi-color prints, powerful designs, and the unique details of each part that vary by manufacturer and era.

Product Name: "DRAGON"
Vintage: ARTVOGUE
Era: Early 1950s
Material: Rayon Habutae
Print: Discharge Print
Design Pattern: Oriental Pattern

●Discharge Print
This method involves dyeing the fabric a base color, then using a discharge agent to remove the color from the patterned areas,
and simultaneously dyeing those areas with another color.
This allows for vibrant colors to stand out, as it enables combinations of dark base colors with contrasting bright colors.
