punahou purple hawaiian aikane dress

Captivated by lace, ruffles, sleeves & skirts worn by American ministers' wives, the Hawaiians adapted the missionary's dress patterns to Hawaiian lifestyle & culture -- creating the Holoku. Today, Island women enjoy the Holoku at formal events such as graduations, weddings, hula pageants, parades & luaus. The Aikane dress is a beautiful variation of the Holoku Hawaiian Dress.
