The ever amazing Métis Matriarch of Cinema, Tantoo Cardinal (@tantoocardinal) commands the floor at the TIFF (@tiff_net) Fashion & Entertainment Council of Canada Gala (@feccouncil), radiant in custom @ayimach_horizons . 👑✨

This custom piece explores the tactile relationship between luxury and tradition, meticulously crafted from fluid silk. The striking garment is beautifully accented by a dramatic placement of genuine fox fur across the shoulder blade, blending rich, organic textures with high-frequency colors to ground a vision of Indigenous futurism.

A powerful celebration of community, identity, and sovereign design. 🦅❤️
