    The Top Maile goes on first and gets thought about last. A relaxed top in bamboo rayon with stretch, it has a round neckline, dropped shoulders, and short sleeves that end at the elbow, and it hangs loose to the hip.

    The fabric is soft against the skin. The body is cut wide and the hem is straight, so it sits as well over leggings as it does tucked into a skirt. On the Top Maile the kupukupu fronds of the Dusk Blue Kupukupu print run on the diagonal, one shoulder to the opposite hip. Read its full story below.

    Wear it with leggings, or with linen pants and the sleeves pushed up. The Men's ʻEkahi Polo in Dusk Blue Kupukupu is his side of the print, and the Boys Aloha Shirt and Girls Tie Top Dress match it for the keiki.

    Wao Keleo O Puna Kupukupu Print from Kahulale'a
    Wao Kele o Puna — Kupukupu
    This print was inspired by the kupukupu of Puna, which are especially striking: longer, fuller, and incredibly vibrant, stretching confidently across the forest floor. They are like a reflection of the strength of the land itself.

    The setting for this inspiration is Wao Kele o Puna, the native lowland rainforest that is both culturally and ecologically significant in Puna. It is a place where native plants continue to thrive in abundance, representing the richness and vitality of that region.

    In hula traditions, the more delicate pala‘a and palapalai ferns are often celebrated and widely used for adornment. The kupukupu, however, offers a different kind of beauty. Its fronds are strong, sturdy, and resilient, growing easily across the lava landscapes of Puna where other plants might struggle. In many ways, it mirrors the character of Puna itself—formed by Pele, yet constantly renewing and flourishing.

    Through this print, I wanted to celebrate the forests of Wao Kele, the resilience of the kupukupu fern, and the place I come from—Puna. It is a tribute to the land and the plants that continue to inspire our cultural practices, including hula.
