The metmuseum's updated exhibit features the work of five prominent Indigenous designers.
“The cotton-canvas trouser skirt made its debut when I presented my collection, Atavism, at the inaugural Indigenous Fashion Week Vancouver in 2017. When contacted by The Met, I was of course delighted, then intrigued at their interest in that particular piece. It’s one that encapsulates everything that my work as a whole aims to do—to destabilize codes of gender and stereotypes of Indigeneity that have been defined under colonialism.
“The Section 35 baseball jersey was created with Ebbets Field Flannels out of Seattle. It’s a vintage-style cream wool baseball jersey. I am a retired baseball player—I played baseball in university down in California, which allowed me to get my degree in business. This piece pays homage to my roots as an athlete and the game of baseball, which allowed me the opportunity to travel and expand my horizons beyond my reservation boundaries.
