Hawaiian Edit

Pulling a print shirt off a hanger settles the decision before anything else does, because a Hawaiian shirt comes down to the print and to almost nothing else. Cloth and cut barely get a look in when a pattern is doing all the work. The swim shorts sit in here with the shirts, printed the same way. So the real question is how much pattern you want on at one time.

Hawaiian Print Shirts and Matching Swim Shorts

Running the same print top and bottom is a decision made in a bedroom and then lived with for a whole day. Matched, the Hawaiian edit reads as deliberate, which is right beside a pool and a lot to carry into a bar later on. Broken up, the shirt keeps the pattern and something plain underneath takes the volume down without taking the point away. The swim edit has the shorts on their own for anyone who has the shirt half settled. Either way it is worth working out before the towel goes in the bag.

Wearing a Print Shirt Open Over a Plain Tee

Left open over a plain tee, a print shirt stops being holiday clothing and turns into a light layer with something on it. That version travels a long way from any beach, into a Friday evening in town or a warm night when nothing else needs to go over the top. Mens summer shirts holds the camp collars for anyone still deciding whether the print is for them. What goes underneath settles the rest. White leaves the print in charge, black takes it down a notch, and anything patterned starts an argument that neither piece wins.
