Parents Magazine    February 1953

Throwback to an image I drew 2 years ago :) -- One more #ForceFriday piece! This was a commission for Michele Makanui who requested the classic Star Wars scene based on the poster by the Hildebrandt brothers... but in my style • At first I was thinking, oh ya the people in my style- easy... but when it came to the droids and Darth Vader... Not much variation so I scrapped the first draft • I figured my style is making things silly and local... so here’s the end result: “Uke” Skywalker, Princess “Lei”-a, “Tree”-Pi-O, & Mahalo Detoo (the puns cant all be gems...) Shave ice Death Star, Diamond Head in the back, instead of X-Wings there’s B-52 Cockroaches... 😊 • Mahalo, Michele for letting me work on a fun project. 😊 #jonjmurakami #starwars #starwarsfanart #lukeskywalker #princessleia #c3po #r2d2 #darthvader #deathstar #xwing #starwarsanewhope #ukelele #shaveice #hawaii #lei #alohashirt #palmtree #mahalo #Mahalodoesnotmeantrash #cockroach #copic #copicmarkers #comic #cartoon https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf3KI8uukuj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Aloha Shirt: Surf, Film and the Far Right Movement

Created in the 1930s by Japanese seamstresses, the Aloha Shirt was originally made from scraps of Kimono fabric. The first Hawaiian shirts were made from Yukata cotton, based on a "Palaka", a shirt worn on the island's plantations.

The tailor "Musa-Shiya the Shirtmaker" was the first to market these shirts. For a few cents, Musa-Shiya would make custom-made pieces from the fabric his customers brought him. The Hawaiian shirt began to be worn by students who after classes became "Beach Boys", the island's surf instructors. After World War II, wealthier Americans took advantage of the development of sea travel to flock to the island.

Fascinated by the lifestyle of the beach boys who taught them how to surf on the island, the Aloha Shirt became the souvenir to bring back from their Hawaiian holiday. In the United States, wearing an Aloha Shirt became a sign of wealth, but also of self-confidence and open-mindedness, as this piece went against the codes of masculinity at the time.

Worn by Elvis in 1961 on the cover of his album "Blue Hawai", the Aloha became a piece used to define free and independent characters. Tony Montana in Scarface, Romeo in Romeo+Juliet and Tyler Durden in Fight Club, all of these characters have the self-confidence to wear what they want. Their virility and courage are proven by their actions. Very colourful and close to the feminine dresses of the time, this light piece does not question their status.

In the United States, however, the Aloha Shirt has become a symbol of the extreme right. Linked to the "Bungaloo" movement, it is used as a rallying symbol on the basis of a racist private joke that originated on 4chan. For this reason, the original Aloha Shirt shape is partly shunned by brands. Wacko Maria, Soulland or Fuct rely on the spirit of the Aloha Shirt to develop prints that they use on Bowling Shirts. Its unstructured and more open collar makes it easier to wear.
