Shayla Oulette Stonechild interviews Osamuskwasis, a Cree and Dene fashion designer. She discusses her journey in fashion, starting beadwork at age seven, and launching her brand in 2020 with $500. She emphasizes the importance of patience and cultural connections in her work that have been passed down through generations. Together, Shayla and Osamuskwasis explore the deeper meaning of Indigenous fashion - not simply as clothing, but as a living expression of culture, healing, and sovereignty. From honoring hunters and warriors through her latest collection to dreaming of collaborations with global brands, her story is one of resilience, creativity, and matriarchal strength.
