You've seen her work featured on our website before, starting off with an article on Bullshoe Creations' pow wow trail accessories and other articles talking about fashion shows she's participated in. But now, designer Belinda Bullshoe has some really big news to announce: an invite to showcase her designs at Paris Fashion Week! Every designer dreams about traveling to Paris, so this is some exciting news, especially for a Native designer (Blackfeet/ Blood Tribe) from Montana!
KRTV Great Falls recently interviewed Bullshoe about how she's preparing for the trip:
As you can imagine, it's expensive to travel to Paris, especially with all the outfits she has to take with her too. Bullshoe has set up a GoFundMe to help offset some of the costs.
Let's Help Send Belinda Bullshoe & Native Fashion to Paris!
Just look at some of these gorgeous designs, and tell me you don't want to see these walking down the runway!
Paris Fashion Week is at the end of September, so Bullshoe is in a hurry to finish up all the last minute touches on her designs. I can't wait to hear how her trip goes!

says:I love your beautiful designs. I have a question and it may seem weird but I have the utmost respect for natives and indigenes people and I don’t want to insult anyone so I’m asking you if me being a white woman allows me to be able to purchase and wear some of the designs or is it considered supporting the appropriation of the native culture?
