Native American Fashion Week
Showcasing Authentically American Style
For four days in early May, Indigenous fashion designers, models and artisans from across North America came to Santa Fe, N.M., for Native Fashion Week.
The event, new this year, included runway shows, panel discussions, pop-up shops and, of course, parties. It was put on by the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts, the longtime organizer of the Indian Market, a popular showcase of Indigenous-made goods in Santa Fe.
I'm delighted to see examples of Native American fashion outside the powwow circuit, and touching on the fashion industry.
