I love Native American designs. There's something about the art, designs and prints that shows a connection to nature, and yet these same designs can be modernized to be wearable in urban settings. Plus the designers love to use a lot of color, which I'm much in agreement with.
One of the four Native designers featured today, Sho Sho Esquiro, is a Canadian Native woman from Yukon, Canada (yay!) who has recently shown her collection at the NYC Couture Fashion Week this year. One of her designs, the yellow dress, is pictured below.
I have to talk a bit about Patricia Michael as she is the first Native designer to compete on Project Runway! She participated in season 11, which I haven't seen yet. I'm having a hard time finding Project Runway on networks in the eastern standard time zone in Canada. I'd love to see her creating on the show! Can I buy the dvd anywhere?
Till next blog!
