About
How are Indigenous people using fashion to bring Indigeneity and Indigenous culture into their everyday lives? Through beadwork, textiles, fashion design, make-up, hair and accessories, hear how these Indigenous creatives are connecting with culture through personal expressions and how historically, through colonial oppression, this was not always possible.
