UTQIAGVIK, Alaska - It’s not the fashion capital of the world, but it is the northernmost city in the United States.In her element at her home in Anchorage, Brower brings her creative fashion designs to life. She’s always been surrounded by a subsistence lifestyle, but also grew up around seamstresses and skin sewers too.Brower’s always loved fashion, but it wasn’t until middle school that she really started to take an interest in it.
So, she started sewing and creating her own designs, and it wasn’t long before people took an interest. “I really liked high-end designers like Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors,” she said. “Like, they have really nice stuff, so what I did one time to get a really nice pattern, I bought a Michael Kors coat, and I deconstructed it and then I altered the pattern to my pattern, and made it really like — that’s kind of like how I make the more high end.”
