How to tie a pareo » More ways for pareo tying

The Society Islands are the epitome of paradise. With everything perfect, a Tahitian pareo tyed in the Maitai (good) style adds more than a fun twist. To start off, hold the pareo lengthwise and wrap around to your front. While holding the top corners, pull across your front. Pull and twist the ends to make a secure half knot. Open up one of the loose ends, cover breast and tuck in back. Cover the other breast with the remaining loose end.

Tuck in back, or if the ends are long enough, tie both ends in back. The finished Maitai style is a great look that gives a faux bandeau look with a twist to island fashion. To add a finishing touch, add our Maitai Black Pearl Shell Earrings for that fun island fashion statement.


	No Tahitian dancer should be caught without these essentials. Whether you are doing the tamure in a skirt or a pareo, with iis or shells, there's more to Tahitian dance than shaking the hips. Take a look at some of our collection favorites:
