What happens when Indigenous fashion is on the global stage?

In February 2023, Sage Paul took seven Indigenous designers to Milan Fashion Week as a part of a three-year partnership between Indigenous Fashion Arts and White Milano, a tradeshow for international womenswear.

Sage Paul is the Founding Executive and Artistic Director at Indigenous Fashion Arts, and in this episode I talk to her about her goal of increasing the visibility of Indigenous artists and the impact of partnerships like the one with White Milano. We also unpack some of the important themes that come up in the Indigenous fashion space in North America like family and sovereignty, but also our complex relationships to fur and the Hudson's Bay Company, and how those themes impact Indigenous fashion.
