more modern mu'umu'u
Language of the Birds makes print driven, ethical clothes. We were founded in Honolulu and our studio is now an unheated barn in Upstate NY. We design all our prints. We cut and sew our dresses in the US.

our prints
We are concept driven and our development may span years. We love history and embrace a research heavy process. Our prints are held in a museum collection and our work has been recognized by Pantone.
our dresses
We tie our lineage back to the history of feminism and the “reform dress.” We take the essence of historic Mu’umu’u forms and make them modern. Forms are suitable for all types of work and play.
