grass skirts
Woven tropical garments
Grass skirts are garments made from long strands of grass, leaves, or plant fibers hanging from a waistband.
Associated with Pacific Island cultures, particularly Hawaii and Polynesia, they appear in traditional dance and tourist imagery.
The grass skirt became a kitschy symbol of tropical exoticism in mid-20th-century American pop culture: tiki bars decorated with grass skirts, a luau costume complete with grass skirt and lei.
