What makes your style stand out?
I released my first fashion line 15 months ago at the annual Red Event. My fashion line is called Raising awareness through the art of fashion. It is a red dress collection honouring missing and murdered indigenous woman, girls plus two spirits. I also make traditional drum bags and satchels with very long fringe. Every design made is custom red leather I like to make my dresses very long because all woman are sacred. Some people call me Pocahontas, no. I am Ogima-Ikwe. Indigenous high fashion
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Growing up modelling was so much fun. Now that I have my own fashion line and I am working on a new one I know that moment is yet to come!
What would you do with $20,000?
get a head start on the annual Red Event. I will also be able to purchase white leather for my spiritual wedding dress collection xo
