Gallery 1 — Two Smudge

Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week 2023

Two Smudge x Jaime Gentry Design

Matthew Provost’s debut at VIFW included 10 designs all individually cut and sewn in house. The collection included colour blocked jackets with heavier weighted fabrics such as wool, denim, and canvas. This collection focused on the details of quality, utility, and culture. Blackfoot Lodge designs were also depicted to share visuals to reflect some of the original designs of the Blackfoot Peoples’, this was important since this is the grounding I use for designing and concept creation.

This collection is dedicated to my grandparents Charlotte and Mario Provost, and Rosaline Blackplume.
