Utah's first Indigenous Fashion Week will take place on Saturday from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Leonardo. Tickets are $5.
SALT LAKE CITY — Artist and designer Jessica Wiarda saw a gap as she observed different fashion weeks taking place in Utah.
This year's fashion week will consist of one night featuring work from artists representing half a dozen tribes — including Hopi, Navajo , Ute, Northern Ute, Apache and Anishinaabe Ojibwe — as well as a section featuring powwow regalia. But Wiarda hopes the show will be the start of an annual tradition.
Michael Haswood, a Diné artist who is helping organize the show, said although the event will very much be a modern fashion show, many of the pieces will incorporate traditional designs. Haswood added that although fashion week happens on the Navajo Reservation, there's nothing similar in Salt Lake City.
Michelle Brown, an Indigenous designer who will be modeling during the show, agreed that the event will be impactful for Salt Lake City.
