Hawaiian costume for girls and women

A women's outfit for an Hawaiian party for any age consists of such parts:

Making a skirt

It will take:

  1. We measure the waist and add to this figure 10-15 cm, so we know how long we need to cut the rope.
  2. We cut the raffia. To do this, we first determine how long our skirt should be, then multiply by 2 and add 6 cm. We get the length of the segments we follow to cut, all the raffia. The number of threads required depends on the waist, on average for a woman of 44 sizes, about 100 threads are required.
  3. We spread the rope exactly on the table and proceed to impose on it the threads of the raffia.
  4. Cut the piece of Raffia in half, put the middle under the rope and fold it forward, so that a loop is obtained. In it we pull out the free ends of the raffia and tighten it.
  5. We do so along the entire length of the rope, leaving only the ends of its free (7-10 cm), so you can tie it.

If you do not have the opportunity to buy rolls of raffia thread, then you can take paper bags from the grocery store and, cutting them on the sides along the entire length, make one cuts. Then, combine the pieces with adhesive tape and glue flowers on top.

As the top part of the costume for the Hawaiian party, the bodice from the swimsuit is perfect, or a short topic, lined with paper flowers.

Production of flower beads

It will take:

  1. Cut flowers and leaves from cardboard.
  2. Leaves are folded in half, and we twist the flowers with scissors to give them volume.
  3. We glue the flowers and arrange them in the same order as they should be on the beads.
  4. We insert a thick thread into the needle and begin to string. Flowers are pierced in the center, and leaves at the base.
  5. We connect the ends of the rope with each other and our beads are ready.

To decorate the head for women and girls, you can use large hairpins, usually orchids, or a wreath made in the same way as beads.

Hawaiian costume for boy and man

The male outfit consists of:

When choosing a shirt for a party in Hawaiian style, you should opt for a bright shirt with large flowers.

You can also put on a ready-made beach suit, consisting of a colored shirt and shorts. If you do not have such clothes, then you can simply make old shorts out of old jeans, it's enough just to cut them to the knee.

The edge along the cutting line can be stitched and made a fringe or simply wrapped and stitched.
