TROPIC OF SPLENDOR

Cheeky grass skirts, bold haku lei, roadside fruit stands, flora and fauna prints—retro Hawaii at its finest. Photographer Ijfke Ridgley takes us on a journey from Oahu's North Shore to Chinaman's Hat and back again with this stunning 1970's style editorial that evokes the Hawaii of yesteryear.
