Rocket Betty Designs

Feeling so fortunate to be able to create my art (aloha wear) in conditions that are good for me, the planet, and my clients. All my items are made by me, in my bright, cheery, climate controlled studio. Each piece is infused with good energy and joy so that my clients can pass that along to others as they wear it. Yes, my process is slow and I only take a very limited amount of orders and that’s ok. It’s far better than the awful conditions most mass produced clothing are made under. I strive to be eco-friendly in all ways. Our planet depends on it. Thanks for following along on my art journey. Hope you enjoy my newest pieces. Cheers and mahalo! 🌺 Gorgeous fabric design by @muhlenkott and printed at @spoonflower 🤎🤍🤎 #alohawear #alohacoat #alohajacket #hostessdress #alohadress #wiggledress #handcrafted #sandwichislesjacket #designercreator #rocketbettyresort #rocketbettydesigns #madewithaloha #liveponopracticealoha #livealoha #bullcity #durhamnc #hightiki #alohastyle #artist #gratitude #joy #abundancemindset

Going to @ohanaluauatthelake ? 🧉 Be sure to stop by @smashfiredesigns vendor booth for Kim’s beautiful jewelry AND my hair flowers. 🌺 I sent up a limited supply so make sure you shop early! 🛍️ I’ll be missing all you crazy kids. Have all the fun, buy the artwork, drink the drinks, participate in all the shenanigans, bid on the auction items, share aloha, and remember to stay hydrated!

Recognize this fabric? It’s was used by the Disney Polynesian Village Resort. 🧡🤍🩷 They sold off some back stock a while back and now I have multiple clients rocking it as custom aloha wear! Here’s the newest set for some amazing clients of mine. Cheers, y’all!

Working on new offerings - Downloadable sewing patterns in vintage tropical styles! 🖨️ ✂️🪡 While there are some vintage aloha wear patterns out there, they can be hard to find or only available in limited sizes. I’m working to change that. 🌺 My plan is to roll these out one at a time, eventually building a library of men’s, women’s, and unisex styles to choose from. 👕🌴👗 In the meantime, I will be working through my vintage fabric and releasing some limited edition items so watch for those coming soon. (Hint: first ones will be offered next week!) 👁️ Keep an eye out! Thanks for reading this far! If you have a pattern you’d love to see made, please let me know. Comment or DM me.
