What Aztec Attire is About

Hey everyone, I just wanted to take the time to talk a little about Aztec attire and why I started this clothing brand. 

 

My journey started back at the end of Christmas in December 29, 2016 that was the year that I arrived at standing rock. For those of you who don't know standing rock was a huge movement in order to stop an oil pipeline that was going to go under a river that was part of treaty land of the Sioux tribe. The whole world came together in order to stop this injustice against native people. Many people including myself felt pulled by a greater spiritual force to be there and stand with my people and all humanity.

 

At the time I was just learning about my indigenous roots, by the time standing rock was over, I had come to fully realize my native ancestry. Not long after I took s DNA test to confirm what I already knew, and sure enough when the results came back, it said I was half Native.

 

Ever since then I have felt a pull to learn more about my ancestors and when I get the chance I plan to go to Mexico and hopefully find a mentor or teacher out there in which I can learn our ways.

 

Essentially this clothing brand is a way for me learn more about the our culture as and connect with fellow mexica artist while at the same time inspiring the mexican youth to explore there native roots. To my fellow mexica people, I will apologize ahead of time if I accidentally culture appropriate anything sacred.

 

Even if I am half native I am very unconscious of cultural appropriation to any native culture.

 

I hope you enjoy these designs as much as I do, we will be having designs that come from various mexica artist that are well connected with the culture, ceremonies and education

 

Thank you to everyone who purchases from this site it really does mean a lot!
