    It a vintage Kamehameha circa 1938. This print is usually called the "gauguin shirt" because the design of the print was inspired by the art of the French impressionist Paul Gaugain. It's part of a matched "wedding set" I own (which consists of a shirt and dress).

    Here's a picture of me in another one of my favorites (alas with no fedora, however). It's a reproduction of a 1950's design by the awesome Japanese label Sun Surf made by Toyo Enterprises (who also make Buzz Rickson I think):

    As he says, he owns the "wedding set" because I can't fit the dress yet! We'll see who owns what if I should ever slim down so far. The set looks REALLY impressive together.
