Loving this gorgeous capsule collection by designer and seventh generation #Dine (#Navajo) textile artist Naiomi Glasses. Naiomi's designs celebrate Navajo pattern work and centuries-old weaving traditions. Traditional motifs, like directional crosses, dragonflies, spider woman crosses, and others are found across this gorgeous collection. #RalphLauren #RRL #PoloWestern#Dinetah #NavajoNation #NaoimiGlasses #RRLwestern#RRLnavajo #RRLstyle

Every now and then a piece comes along that amazes me. This Ralph Lauren Purple Label belt is one of those rare pieces. Created in partnership with Shiprock Gallery in Santa Fe NM, the level of craftsmanship on this belt is remarkable. The hand distressed burnished edges, intentionally imperfect construction, intricate details, and light patina on the silver conchos reminds me of some of the finest third phase concho belts I've seen at stores in Aspen and Jackson Hole.

This isn't a RRL belt, but it looks like a piece that Ralph personally had designed or was curated for a RRL store on a buying trip to the Land of Enchantment 🤠🙌🤠🙌
