Explore the Bold: Indigenous Fashion Show Unveils Navajo Chic amidst Mountain Magic!

Ever seen a fashion show in the mountains? Enter the First Peoples Festival Friendship Pow Wow and Indigenous Art Market in none other than Estes Park! 🎉

Starting this Friday and rolling through the weekend, Estes Park Events Complex transforms into a cultural wonderland featuring traditional dance-offs, soul-stirring musical performances, and even a runway show! Leading the fashion charge? Penny Singer, the Urban Navajo with designs as bold as her spirit. Coming all the way from the New Mexico/Arizona line, she’s ready to sprinkle some haute couture magic.

"My garments can paint a visual story," boasts Singer, hinting at her Navajo-inspired designs. Her apparel is a tapestry of bold, geometric flair, proudly taught by her Navajo ancestors. For over 20 fabulous years, she’s made a name crafting ribbon shirts and striking blazers. Who wouldn’t strut down the street in one of those $450 to $950 statement pieces? 🔥

Her style legacy? A visual tale woven from memories with her grandmother — not with words, but through threads, colors, and imagination.

And it’s not just about the threads! Expect the Indigenous Veterans of Colorado to bring the house down with their flag-waving prowess, a mark of respect and honor at this awesome pow wow.

For Singer and her fashion escapades, it’s another day in the office — if your office is a dance of art markets and cultural shows across the country. Catch the vibes and vibrant displays this weekend, for they’ll feature traditional arts that span continents and stories deeper than the threads themselves.

And don’t miss the chance to cheer on your favorite dancers and heroes at other pow wows happening throughout Colorado, like the upcoming mingler in Thornton on February 15th. From dance battles to spiritual insights, these events pack a punch!

Feeling the beat yet? Stay tuned for all things happening in the Centennial State. Get a sneak peek into the weekend extravaganza with figures like the venerated Eagle Plume's owners showcasing Native American art.

Dive deep into authenticity this weekend. Can you handle the excitement? Be there or be square!
