Island Escape
Fresh, vibrant and effortlessly elegant. The Maiana Dress in Island Escape brings together beautiful shades of emerald, turquoise and deep teal against a soft creamy beige base, creating a striking tropical print for our ALOFA collection.
Oversized monstera leaves sweep across the fabric in rich ocean greens, with bold black outlines bringing depth and definition to every detail. Inspired by the lush beauty of our Pacific islands, Island Escape feels refreshing, sophisticated and full of summer charm. Designed in our elegant Maiana Dress, the strapless neckline beautifully frames the shoulders, while the fitted bodice and flattering full-length silhouette create a look that feels feminine, confident and effortlessly dressed up.
Each MENA print is created in limited quantities, making them truly special. Once this print is sold out, it will not return.

The Story
ALOFA: Heart of the Pacific.
At the heart of the Pacific is Alofa — love. Our Summer 2026 collection celebrates the warmth, connection and beautiful moments that make summer feel like home, inspired by the people we hold close and the memories we create together.
Island Escape brings the lush beauty of our Pacific landscapes into ALOFA. Inspired by the tropical greenery that surrounds our island homes, this beautiful colourway combines rich emerald and turquoise tones with a soft creamy backdrop, creating a print that feels fresh, vibrant and naturally elegant.
Oversized monstera leaves unfold across the fabric, their distinctive shapes capturing the abundance and beauty of island life. The rich greens bring a sense of tropical paradise, while the lighter base creates a beautiful balance of colour and contrast.
There is something special about summer in the Pacific. The warmth of the sunshine, familiar places that feel like home, family gatherings and celebrations that carry into the evening. Island Escape captures that feeling, bringing together the natural beauty of our islands and the love and connection at the heart of ALOFA.
Refreshing, elegant and distinctly MENA, Island Escape is made for a summer filled with beautiful places, special people and memories worth holding onto.

Welcome to MENA!
If you're new to MENA you'll quickly notice how much we love colour and vibrant polynesian prints!
We started creating our own designs over 20 years ago to connect us more to our Samoan culture. MENA is named of our mother Mena Loheni who was born and raised in Samoa. She learned how to sew when she was very young and it has been a talent that has helped provide for her family and later on the foundation on which our family enterprise was built. You can read more about our story via the link below. In the meantime we hope you find something here to treasure.
Taking MENA International
We love having the opportunity to showcase our designs as far and wide as possible.
Last year we were thrilled to be able to show at the first ever Utah Pacific Fashion Show. It was a fantastic week of sharing, connecting and being inspired by other Pacific designers and creatives from all over. We've documented all the fun events and behind the scenes fun in our latest blogs so you can read all about in the link below!
