Native Fashion
Sometimes, non-Native people avoid purchasing and wearing fashion sold by Native designers for fear of cultural appropriation. In general, supporting Indigenous designers is encouraged. Natives and non-Natives can buy and wear jewelry, accessories, and clothing made by Native people. The jingle chain accessories are an exception and should only be worn by Natives due to their sacred and spiritual nature. If you are unsure whether a non-Native person should buy or wear something created by an Indigenous person, ask them.
