Kalihi-based fashion designer Nake‘u Awai has created his own Christmas shirt, featuring silk-screened male hula dancers over a design of evergreen trees with silvered glitz turned upside down.
You can find the shirts at his studio, 1613 Houghtailing St., or his annual holiday musical event.
Awai’s popular holiday revue is set for Dec. 5, at the Koolau Ballroom, (Ko‘olau Golf Clubhouse, 45-550 Kionaole Road, Käneçohe). The show, “I’ll Buy You a Star,” is inspired by the song from “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.” A marketplace opens at at 9:30 a.m., followed by lunch at 11:15 a.m. and a show at 12:15 p.m.
Some tickets, $48, are still available: 841-1221.
