A lovely shop, as well as the brand's atelier! So cool to see the bolts of fabric, cutting table, and garments in progress. I got to chat with the owner, who told me about their prints, as well as the alterations and customization services they offer. Came away with some new favorites in their lovely modal knit fabric - perfectly lightweight without being transparent or clingy. Beautiful drape, and so soft :)

Rating the store front and quality of clothes. I was introduced to Kūlua through the Made in Hawaii festival and fell in love with the prints, softness of fabric, and customer service! They're so so kind. I was excited to visit the storefront and was not disappointed. There's lots of parking, the store is open and bright. There's a clearance section, but I love that it appears to also house the patterns for the clothes! When I was shopping, I'm pretty sure the owner was also cutting fabric. So cool to see the clothes being made! I tried on a dress, which the owner pointed out was a little shorter than the others. She offered to make another one if I wanted a longer length. I thought that was such a nice gesture!

Kūlua is a lovely shop that aims to be environmentally friendly while producing creative designs. I ordered my sister a few gifts from here online (which was easy thru their website) and Anna (owner and designer) went above and beyond in answering my questions via email. I highly recommend and will definitely order again from this lovely Kanaka (Native Hawaiian) owned shop. Thank you, Anna!

The designer is such a sweet lady! And she was so willing to help me out when I want to come back for a custom skirt. I will for sure be going back to see her & getting a custom skirt made! I also told some friends about her shop & now they want to visit her too!

Light and airy and uncluttered design studio that invites you in, Kulua has stretch jersey and cotton sateen materials printed with unique and original Hawaiian prints! There are also lauhala accessories that compliment the clothing designs. I found a muted opihi color print in a tunic length top that I instantly fell in love with. Unfortunately they didn't have my size, but not to worry! I placed an order. I should receive my opihi top via mail in 2 weeks! So simple and quick! Woo hoo!
