“We are hoping to give life back into vintage clothes and upcycling them for a new look. The makeke will have a mix of vintage, handmade, and local businesses showcasing their items.”
HONOLULU (KHON2) — Angelina “Lala” Devers, joined Wake Up 2Day to share the details on the first-ever Hana Hou Makeke coming to the Kahala Hotel on Oct. 12.
Lala shared the meaning behind the market and what it aims to accomplish in sustainable fashion.
“The makeke’s theme is ‘repair rehome repeat.’ We are hoping to give life back into vintage clothes and upcycling them for a new look. The makeke will have a mix of vintage, handmade, and local businesses showcasing their items.”
Founder, Lala, was given an amazing opportunity with a venue to host her first makeke.
“It started off as a really small garage sale and got really big overnight, I always put my full effort into everything and I was given such an amazing opportunity to work with the Kahala Hotel, so I wanted to use my platform to give back to local businesses, friends, clients and highlight Hawaiian fashion.”
Guests are able to purchase “first dib” tickets which will allow two hours of private shopping along with free pupus, photos, live band and biki dates parking.
This starts sharply at 9 a.m. There will also be special gifts for the first 100 people to purchase tickets. From 11 a.m. to noon, the market will be open to the public.
The Hana Hou Makeke premieres on Oct. 12th at the Kahala Hotel. For more details on the vendors, visit their Instagram (@hanahoumakeke).
