Fur Parka Fashion Show At Cama-i

It’s the second year in a row that the Cama-i Dance Festival has brought back the Fur Parka Fashion Show, which was not held since the early 2000s.

 

 

 

Brought back not only to showcase the artistry, the show highlights the intergenerational connection handed down by each hand-constructed item of regalia, some newly made and others spanning several decades. KYUK’s Christine Trudeau spoke with participants Dolly Boney, Stella Evon, and Saima Chase, as well as Saima's son Jani Chase, and niece Alice Carol.
