As a member of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, Aubrey Briggs has always been inspired by her heritage. However, Native American culture has rarely been represented through a non-colonial lens in the fashion industry. In Briggs’ collection, contemporary Native American culture is merged with American pop culture through the lens of streetwear. By combining classic streetwear silhouettes with elements of Native regalia and heritage, Briggs’s collection enables the wearer to feel connected to Native culture in a contemporary way.
