TORI RICHARD VINTAGE LIMITED EDITION

We announce the relaunch of timeless 1970’s era vintage dresses. Each piece is recreated from the brand’s extensive archives – an inspiring portfolio of Honolulu resort fashion dating back to the mid-1950s. With plans to release a new distinct style each season, the initiative celebrates the brand’s rich history of textile artwork of nearly 70 years.

  • THE TORI DRESS “HONOLULU 72"

    A precise reproduction of its namesake, the dress features a print created by the company in 1972, exemplifying modernist expressions of Asian influences. The original cotton ottoman fabric was faithfully duplicated by an Italian mill, possessing a soft structure and gorgeous drape that brings the artwork to life. Hand crafted in the USA, the dress uses the Italian textile to recreate the dress to vintage specifications and details, resulting in a beautiful halter maxi dress with a fitted bodice and soft A-line skirt.

Since 1956, Tori Richard has created art to reflect and celebrate the diversity of Hawaii's cultures and environment. Over the decades, this creative process has resulted in a deep and rich archive of over 40,000 works of beautiful textiles and resort fashion silhouettes. Each Tori Richard design encapsulates something unique about the decade when it was released. To launch the initiative, two stunning vintage dresses have been recreated in celebration of the brand’s legacy.
