Dolkii is an island-inspired lifestyle brand and online boutique started by sisters Shaiyanne Dar and Yasmin Dar Fasi, who launched a collection of tees and tanks last year to benefit the nonprofit Women’s Fund of Hawai‘i, an organization dedicated to supporting innovative, grassroots programs that empower women and girls statewide.
Wa‘ahia’s outspoken tees and accessories give the feminist slogan an indigenous twist. Born in Kaimuk and sold online and at select Hawai‘i boutiques, the brand’s other off-duty wares come emblazoned with native Hawaiian words and imagery in a nod to Hawai‘i’s past and present.

This bra, you’ll actually want to wear. Like the rest of her signature body chain collection, Hawai‘i-born designer Bliss Lau’s adjustable jewelry-as-lingerie is crafted from precious metals and gemstones and designed to be draped under clothes as sensual adornment. Available in elegant sterling silver and black diamond or luxe yellow gold and white diamond.
You need the perfect bikini, not the perfect body, says Roxelle Cho, founder of body-positive swimwear line Fused Hawaii. Inspired by garments she made to suit her own post-baby body, the self-taught designer’s handmade bikinis and one pieces ship free from Kailua-Kona and give love to beach babes of all shapes and sizes.
