SELF-DETERMINATION Determination of one's acts or states by oneself without external compulsion:
Evan Ducharme debuted his label, based in the historic Métis community of St. Ambroise, Manitoba (Treaty 1 Territory), in 2014. His designs explore Métis culture through contemporary interpretations of iconography and expressions of indigenous sexualities. This trouser skirt made from utilitarian cotton canvas lined with horsehair, tulle, and satin from Ducharme’s ATAVISM collection - presented at the inaugural Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week in 2017 - reflects his interest in historical silhouette and the concept of two-spirit identity.
