"So every collection that I do starts with the original art. I will hand draw the ledger drawings in the collection you’ve seen hand done bead work that I’ve done and I’ve turned into prints and patterns and then I go in and I make them into different design work, different colors , and I play with different concepts within it. So to actually go and see my work on the runway is such a proud moment. It because it’s actual hours of hours and hours of work leading up to it and creating the prints and patterns, creating the original art and then to see it debut on a runway with a diverse amazing group of indigenous artists, models, entertainers, poets, musicians was such a proud moment for me and I’m so happy to be here in Santa Fe."

14. SOUNDBITE (English) Lynn Traylor, artist:
"Native fashion is about storytelling for me. Like with my pieces, all of my pieces have stories.They have names because I spend so much time working on them and the knowledge that I got from my bead work comes from my family. My dad, he taught me how to bead when I was a kid and then I picked it up again as an adult and I used it to create all of my pieces here so for me native fashion is about storytelling and we all have our stories to tell. We all have things that we wanna create and this is some of the ways that we will tell our stories and put those, bring them to life like with hats, with fashion, with jewelry they all have stories and they have teachings."

"If you go in to look at the history of regalia you could just even go to a simple powwow and the amount of variants there is always incredible so that’s always been there when it comes to clothing that then becomes non regalia. Then there is that that naturally happens with these designers because it’s in our DNA to be able to have that diversity so it doesn’t come to a shock, it just is absolutely exciting that it’s finally happening."

STORYLINE:
Fashion designers from across North America are bringing together inspiration from their Indigenous heritage, culture and everyday lives to three days of runway modeling that started Friday in a leading creative hub and marketplace for Indigenous art.
A fashion show affiliated with the century-old Santa Fe Indian Market is collaborating this year with a counterpart from Vancouver, Canada, in a spirit of Indigenous solidarity and artistic freedom. A second, independent runway show at a rail yard district in the city has nearly doubled the bustle of models, makeup and final fittings.
Elements of Friday’s collections from six Native designers ran the gamut from silk parasols to a quilted hoodie, knee-high fur boots and suede leather earrings that dangled to the waste. Models on the Santa Fe catwalks include professionals, dancers and Indigenous celebrities from TV and the political sphere.
