Aloha shirt featuring critters from Ernst Haeckel's Kunstformen der Natur


The 19th century German biologist's seminal illustrations of weird sea-life have been adapted for a gorgeous Betabrand cabana shirt.

I presupported this one in its crowdfunding stage (Betabrand lets its fans suggest designs for clothes, which it then prototypes and offers up for crowdfunding; if it receives a critical mass of preorders, it goes into production). The pattern's absolutely gorgeous, science-inspired stuff, and the tailoring is great, too — I love my Betabrand stuff!
