Founded in 1991 by the Hui family in Honolulu, Avanti Designs (operating as Avanti Hawaii) emerged from a passion for the "Golden Age" of the Aloha shirt. Rooted in the nostalgia of 1930s–1950s Hawaii, the brand is dedicated to reviving authentic, time-honored prints that capture the romance of the islands' past. Unlike mass-market resort wear, Avanti distinguishes itself through a commitment to high-quality materials—primarily Crepe de Chine silk and fine cotton—and meticulous pattern matching.
