From citrus groves to swaying palms, Dorothy Zudora’s latest collection is a postcard from Florida’s most stylish decades. Think 1950s cocktail parties on the lanai, 60s cabana stripes, and 70s poolside glamour—all reimagined for today’s retro-loving resort crowd.
Florida has always been a canvas for color. Sun-bleached motels, candy-colored Cadillacs, vintage flamingo lawn ornaments—this visual playground shaped everything from our wild novelty prints to our cotton knit polos in citrus shades. If you’re headed to the coast, the Keys, or just want to dress like every hour is golden hour, this one’s for you.
Mid Century Meets Modern Fabric
We wanted this collection to look retro, but feel elevated. That’s why we paired our most nostalgic prints with performance jersey and soft cotton knit fabrics. Whether you’re golfing, cruising, or just brunching near Boca, these polos and button ups hold up in the heat and drape like a dream. They’re breathable, comfortable, and wrinkle-resistant—without losing any of the old-school charm.
Wear It to The Villages… or the Virgin Islands
Florida is our home turf—and just a short drive from our studio is The Villages, one of the largest retirement communities in the country and a hotbed of leisure lifestyle. It’s also become a hub for bold fashion, expressive golf attire, and colorful, confident retirees who know how to have a good time. We see you—and we made this collection with you in mind.
But whether you’re heading out for 18 holes, drinks on the veranda, or a getaway to the Gulf Coast, these polos are your ticket to looking like a mid century movie star with a modern edge.
