Missing Polynesia has a unique design to all of her clothing line that represents her culture of Western Samoa, intertwined with a mix of different ethnicity of the Polynesian lineage. Her gift is explicit to what she offers and how each of her designs are created. There is alot of history behind her clothing.
The material she chooses is also very comfy where it flows on your body, where you dont have to keep sucking in your stomach for a particular photo opt, you can actually go eat your favorite food and you still look fabulous! hahaha...jus sayin! I love how its either size 1 or 2: there is a size for everyone from extra small to XXXL and she also has keiki size!
We love taking our family photo in her clothing design and mixing up the color because it looks more vibrant (same color - everyone looks the same and so boring) and it just captures the essence of the photo especially when we are back home against the Koolau mountains.
As you walk into the store you are ALWAYS greeted with a huge smile, some hugs, and every single staff member makes you feel welcomed "Aloha Spirit." They are also their if you need assistance.
Because I was there to shop for my entire ohana and I didnt want any of my kids coming with me (more stress when they are around me), I told them what I needed and what it is for and boom, within 5/10 minutes I had everything that I needed and not knowing if they will look good, if itll fit - I just had to go based on their recommendations. As you can see the photos came out beautiful and the kids were all happy...Plus, people go crazy in having that perfect outfit for their family photos & they forget the true essence of why they are taking a family photo... Now, its more about how you look versus making it enjoyable for memories to be created as an ohana. I see so many ppl stressing out because something doesnt match and forget the entire reason! Enjoy being mismatch, were imperfect Anyways! Hahaha
The Sales staff are very knowledgeable of what they do and are always willing to help, even on the phone when I do my phone orders...I tell them what I want and they ask me a few more questions and they ship it and I always get compliments on her polynesian attire here in Phoenix and wherever I go!
I also refer alot of my friends/family/friends Ive never met to Missing Polynesia and especially some of my clients that are going to hawaii for the first time - I say: "Do you want to look like a tourist or do you want to blend in with the locals?"usually, my answer is "I wanna blend in with da locals!" hahaha...She is one of kind and so is her entire staff!
I love Missing Polynesia - so now you know... read more
