How Amber Midthunder Celebrated Native American Designers at Yaamava' Fashion Daze

"Prey" star Amber Midthunder gathered with stars like Julia Fox and Jeannie Mai for Yaamava' Fashion Daze at the Yaamava' Resort & Casino at San Manuel to celebrate the beauty and enduring legacy of Native American culture. Guests at the two-day extravaganza, which lasted from April 20-21, enjoyed runway shows and a speaker panel, alongside the hotel's elevated pool deck, full-service spa and salon, state-of-the-art entertainment venue, gaming rooms, and more. For the event, Midthunder, 26, nailed festival style, sporting one of Jamie Okuma's original designs, a black tribal-print dress paired with a blue beaded necklace and gold flat circle earrings created by Jennifer Younger, David Thomas, and Ashkii Sneez. While speaking on the panel, she donned a cream satin halter-neck dress and a pair of white New Balances.

"It's amazing to feel all the love and support that's in the Native fashion world. To see all the designers love on each other was so inspiring."

"Normally, I work with a stylist named Isabella Coleman, but I was fortunate to have the amazingly talented designer Jamie Okuma offer to dress me for her show," Midthunder tells POPSUGAR of selecting a look for the appearance. Okuma made history as the first Native American designer to be admitted into the Council of Fashion Designers of America. And Midthunder is a big fan of her work. "I love her designs so much - they're always unique and beautiful and reflect such original creativity while also honoring her culture."

The Indigenous star, who is a member of the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux tribe, was particularly inspired by the unity among Native American fashion designers. "It's amazing to feel all the love and support that's in the Native fashion world," she said. "To see all the designers love on each other was so inspiring."
