What do you get when you combine retro ambiance with
contemporary vibe in Waikiki? Visitors and residents alike can
experience the excitement on Saturday, May 13 at Waikiki By
Moonlight Vintage Meets Vogue. Conceived by the Waikiki Improvement
Association (WIA), the colorful free festival will showcase the
very best of Waikiki’s (and Hawaii’s) alluring past and ever
popular present.
From 5:30-9:30 p.m., Waikiki’s Kalakaua Avenue will be the place to
witness it all.
“There will be great music, fantastic food, unique and
one-of-a-kind arts and crafts, special exhibits and, appropriately,
a “Vintage Meets Vogue” aloha-wear fashion show all happening on
one beautiful, moonlit night in Waikiki, said Rick Egged, president
of WIA.
Special highlights will include:
Stylin’ In Hawaii A fashion show of chic aloha attire created by
local designers that will feature favorites from the past and
present, plus a few design possibilities for the future.
Culture and Arts Skilled artisans will share their talents and
showcase vintage and modern Hawaiian arts and crafts as well as
collectible souvenirs.
Hawaii’s Cuisine Evolution The staples of the ancient Hawaiians
will be available, as well as signature menu items from “long gone
but not forgotten” Waikiki eateries and favorites of today’s best
Waikiki chefs.
Hawaiian Hula And Music Concert Hula will be highlighted with
kahiko (ancient) and auana (modern) performances
and music that pays tribute to some of Hawaii’s living legends (and
their budding contemporary counterparts).
