Today, June 28, 2018 – The power of Native skirts
Native women’s skirts come in dozens of colors and designs that reflect both personal style and cultural identity. Each is sewn with a rich history. Ribbon skirts came about after French traders brought the ribbons to Midwest tribes. Camp skirts and dresses, mostly seen in Apache tribes, have some Mexican influence. Purépecha women in Mexico wear a combination of skirts and traditional aprons. We’ll talk about the traditional meaning and power exemplified by these beautiful women’s garments.
