I'm sorry, but I keep seeing the word "homage" used to justify this. How in the world is this an homage? How is taking a sacred item from people who were stripped of their land, traditions, self sufficiency, identity, and heritage, then stripping that item of its sacred meaning, throwing it on a female model (these are meant for males) and putting it in a fashion show as a novel reference to the american southwest an "homage"? How is it an homage when first nations people have spoken out about how harmful this is to them?
How are they being honored when their wishes are being ignored and disrespected? Thats really the point of it. This is a group that has historically been disrespected, demeaned, abused, etc. This is just a continuation of the lack respect for these people. Its not an homage, its an insult. It's telling them that their opinions and feelings and culture don't matter as long as white people can use it to make money.
TBH, if he stuck with the jewelry and omitted the warbonnets and warpaint, it would have been a nice reference without using sacred material.
