My fiancée used to be a designer at a pretty big label not too long ago. It always amazed me how the stuff she’d sketch sitting next to me on the couch would wind up in stores months later. Anyway, over the years I’ve learned lots of little tidbits here and there about clothing and fabric. One such tidbit is that what differentiates a Hawaiian shirt from something like a Cuban shirt or otherwise similarly printed shirt is the open collar (and the material of course). Naturally, once you learn stuff like that you really start noticing details on clothes etc. Many times I’ve been at a store where there’s a “Hawaiian” shirt on display with the wrong material and wrong collar. Amateurs.
