Indigenous Fashion

Discover Indigenous Fashion, where your heritage, culture, and ethnicity become your canvas for self-expression. This is your opportunity to create an original fashion garment that not only showcases your roots but also reflects your unique perspective as a designer.

While your journey may begin with patterns, this is far from ‘just following a pattern.’ Your final creation should be a testament to your creativity and individuality. We’re looking for garments that speak of tradition, culture and innovation, where every stitch and every detail tells a story. As you embark on this thrilling journey, you’re free to select materials that best suit your character’s look, but we also encourage you to embrace sustainable fashion by ‘reducing, reusing, and recycling’ materials wherever possible. Let your passion for your ethnicity and the environment shine through your work, ensuring authenticity and sensitivity are maintained in the process and representation.

But don’t stop at the garment itself. Your look should be a complete, head-to-toe ensemble. Channel your creativity into headwear, footwear, and accessories that amplify the cultural narrative you wish to share. This is your chance to pay homage to your heritage and redefine fashion through a personal, artistic lens. It’s time to celebrate your roots in style and make a statement that’s as unique as you are!
