Kiowa artist, Keri Ataumbi collaborated with Gabriela Hearst to create Lily Gladstone’s Met Gala look.
One of the biggest nights in fashion, the Met Gala, had Indigenous guests celebrating their culture and this year's theme, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.
Gladstone is Blackfeet and Nimiipuu on her father's side. Like Ataumbi's nation, hers is from the Great Plains of the United States. "We're really born with actual couture, and those objects that are made for us are usually made by our aunties and our uncles and our relatives, and they're made with intention and prayer," Ataumbi told CBC Indigenous.
Dickson told CBC Indigenous she was only given a week to create the look: a fully beaded belt, earrings, two rings, two hair beads and four bobby pins. She relied on community and friends to meet her tight deadline, trading for moose hide and collaborating with artist Melanie Parsons to make the earrings.Heather Dickson made the beadwork for model and activist Quannah Chasinghorse’s Met Gala look. Dickson said that theme resonated with her on many levels, particularly because the forget-me-not flower signifies the coming of summer and was a perfect compliment Chasinghorse's custom lavender H&M gown.
