Aloha wear is associated with the printed Hawaiian shirt—a flowery one. But when the clothing style was conceived in the 1930s, its creators were studying Japanese kimonos, Chinese dragon robes, and local bark cloth. And they were making wondrous gowns and dresses, not just shirts. This exhibition traces the movement’s evolution from the interwar years to now. Viewers will likely be shocked by the diversity on display. —Elena Clavarino
