Hermès keeps history

Hermès celebrates the opening of its expanded store in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center today and has issued a limited-edition Twilly scarf to mark the occasion, personalized with "Waikiki 2004," available exclusively through its new location at $110.

It's a way of continuing the company's long history of creating commemorative scarves to celebrate historical milestones around the world, such as "Entente Cordiale," created at the end of World War II to celebrate the return of peace. In 1976 the "Etats-Unis" scarf celebrated the bicentennial of the Declaration of Independence, and the celebration of Hermès of Paris' third store in New York City coincided with the 100th birthday of the Statue of Liberty and the creation of the "Liberty" scarf.

The expanded shop features two floors, with handbags and small leather goods, gloves, fragrances, fancy jewelry, silk scarves, ties and other silk items, and men's ready-to-wear on the ground level. A discreet staircase leads to the upper level, where a more intimate space with a minimal design sets the scene for women's ready-to-wear, jewelry and watches, as well as Art de Vivre and Art de la Table collections.

Beyond four walls

Those who dropped in at the Pegge Hopper Gallery during First Friday last weekend were treated to a view of wearable art by the artist, a 100 percent silk scarf based on her well-known portraits of Hawaiian women.

The limited-edition 10-by-45-inch scarf is available from Linda Adamson and Kayleen Polichetti of Ho'olauna: A Hawaii Company, at the gallery for $80.

Walk into the gallery at 1164 Nuuanu Ave. or call 734-0006.

Macy's holoku parade

Macy's Ala Moana will present a free fashion show of holoku from 1820 to 2004, featuring Princess Kaiulani Fashions, beginning at 1 p.m. Saturday in Island Attitudes, third floor.

Included will be replicas of historic holoku helping to commemorate Aloha Festivals, which opens on Oahu tomorrow.

Princess Kaiulani Fashions, founded in 1960 by Jack and Joan Anderson, is known for its muumuus, holomuus and holokus embellished with lace, eyelet and lace trims that capture the romance of past eras.

For more information, call 945-5894.

Monarchy show at mall

Also coinciding with Aloha Festivals will be the presentation of "200 Years of Hawaii: The Hawaiian Monarchy Collection," a free fashion show Sunday at Kahala Mall from noon to 1 p.m.

The show will feature authentic and refurbished gowns and holoku of Hawaii's royalty, including heirloom jewelry and accessories, in a fashion journey that begins with Queen Kaahumanu's reign (1820) and concludes with excerpts from the kingdom of Hawaii's last reigning monarch, Queen Liliuokalani.

The presentation includes a performance by the King's Royal Guard, the Kahalepuna Trio, Ka Leo O Laka I Ka Hikina O Ka La Halau Hula, and a vocal performance of "I Ku'u Pua 'O Paoaokalani." Pre-show entertainment begins at 11 a.m.
