At the 2010 Style Pasifika awards, the Auckland designer Sandra Tupu won both the supreme and runner-up awards. This clip shows her winning design, which was inspired by Samoan tatau (tattoo). In Samoan culture when a tatau is unwrapped it represents the pe'a, the Samoan flying bat. Tupu has her own menswear label, 'Flying Fox'.
