After decades of being reliant on Parisian fashion rules, Americans gained their independence to create their own fashion trends in the 1900s. The majority of histories of American fashionstart in the early 1600s, when French colonists adopted attire from Europe, the continent of their birth. These tales, however, leave out the history and downplay the profound influence Native American dress had on later generations of designers.
Native American differed from tribe to tribe, expressing regional identities and resources in ways that the majority of today's sustainable design businesses would envy. Examples include the beautiful patterns of Sioux battle shirts and the exquisite patchwork of breechcloths.
