Self Expression in a Ribbon

Our traditions are strong, and ribbon skirts have long been a meaningful way for us to express our identity, culture, and heritage. For generations, they have been worn with pride as a reflection of who we are and where we come from.

For Alexi, the founder and owner of Kalira Chaos Designs, learning to make ribbon skirts became a powerful journey of reconnecting with her First Nations culture. Through creating ribbon skirts and other Indigenous items, she rediscovered traditions, teachings, and a deeper sense of belonging. What began as a personal path of cultural reconnection grew into a passion for sharing Indigenous craftsmanship with others.

We are enthusiatic on creating traditional and non-traditional styles of skirt's, pants, jackets hoodies and more. As our collection builds you will see more and more of each unique style fill our page. Every Skirt is custom to fit.

Sharing the work

I am proud to share this journey with my close friend, Sandi of Textile Tidbits. Much of what I offer today was either taught to me by her or made possible through the supplies and support she provides.

Sandi has been an important part of my learning journey in my culture and I am grateful to share this website and booth with her. I have great respect for her and her appretiation for the first nations culture.

My future goal is to open a storefront that showcases not only my work but also the creations of Indigenous artisans from across Edmonton. I hope to create a space that celebrates Indigenous culture through authentic art, education, understanding, and appreciation.
