Swagger Tribe Navajo

Navajo, or Dine – as they call themselves, is the largest tribe of North American Indians. Long ago, the ancestors lived in Northwestern Canada and Alaska.Over 1,000 years ago they began to travel south and reached the southwestern United States. The Navajo also began to learn a similar style of weaving, making clothing and art from the Pueblo Natives. This trend is for those whose wardrobe reflects the change of season getting ready for the approach of winter. It’s all about colour and accessories with fringe.
