Palm trees, leaves and fronds provide verdant, shaded relief in torrid heat. Seaside, island and beachy conversationals propel hot colors and tropical inspiration into a major story. Grounds are sepia-cast, weathered, mottled, textured and patterned. Sun-worn colors, textures and island motifs are flaxy and golden, rubbed away by sand, wind and surf. From leis to lianas, jungle and island merge for the ultimate exotic adventure.
Palms leaves, trees and fronds proliferate.
Board shorts and cabana shirts coordinate complementing prints in three-way placements on cuffs, collars, sleeves and more. Surfboards, surf and sand themes, hammocks and convertibles add an element of humor and surprise. A richer handle is evident in silk, linen, cotton voile, summer wools and Egyptian cottons.

Spicy shades, black, white and gray are found in ancestral resists and amplified, abstracted skins and textures.
