Vibrant colors & prints accented by traditional textiles in my bold, unapologetic plus-size Indigenous style.
We would like to thank you for supporting Lisa Marie Naponse in this years competition. Your participation allows us to empower the Elton John AIDS Foundation in their mission to end AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
What makes your style stand out?
Vibrant colors, traditional textiles, bold animal prints that showcase my plus-size Indigenous style. I am fierce and unapologetic in northern Ontario.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Strutting onto the stage in plus-size Indigenous finery—draped in vibrant colors & prints, accented by traditional beadwork & textiles. Confident, bold, and unapologetic, my looks will ignite cultural pride and promote fashion accessibility.
What would you do with $20,000?
I would create my plus-size Indigenous fashion brand showcasing Anishinabek aesthetics that empowers cultural expression and inclusion.
