Indigenous Design: Not New - Just Next.

Native Fashion Week Santa Fe | May 8-11, 2025

As Indigenous designers gain recognition, they are asserting their influence in spaces that were once predominantly controlled by mainstream, often Western-centric, visions of beauty and luxury. Collections are infused with cultural significance, and every stitch carries meaning—from the patterns inspired by ancestral motifs to the sustainable practices that honor the earth and its resources.

At the heart of this movement is a reclaiming of Indigenous culture, which has often been appropriated, misunderstood, or silenced in the fashion world. Now, through their own voices, Native creatives are asserting ownership over their heritage, using fashion as both a canvas for storytelling and a platform for social change.
