The Indigenous Fashion Collective (TIFC) was established to provide a platform for Indigenous designers, artisans, and creatives to network, collaborate and develop a community of Indigenous industry professionals.
The Collective is a community created to nurture, promote, and advocate for Indigenous fashion on a global scale for our members using our four pillars of Culture, Couture, Creativity, and Collaboration. As a TIFC member, designers, artists, brands, and supporters will be able to access the following benefits.
CULTURE
- Members will belong to a community that celebrates Indigenous fashion designers and artists. Members will have access to a calendar that features member/artist events, shows, and other opportunities that feature Indigenous design and culture.
COUTURE
- Members will receive discount opportunities to attend TIFC’s Annual Indigenous Fashion Gala where designers and fashion industry experts will be showcased and recognized for their contributions to the fashion community. Additionally, members will be invited to attend TIFC events and fashion shows that feature TIFC members.
CREATIVITY
- Members will be featured and promoted on TIFC’s websites, podcasts, and other media platforms supported by TIFC. Members will have an opportunity to be listed on TIFC’s website and member directory to connect with other industry professionals, share information, and promote their brands.
COLLABORATION
- Members will receive information, training, and education via access to TIFC members-only webinars, master classes, and first-run podcast content. Additionally, beginning in 2025, TIFC members will have an opportunity to participate in TIFC’s Mentor Program, and other member programs, that will provide members to collaborate with, learn from, and be mentored by designers and fashion industry experts.
