Urban Outfitters causes Navajo Nation Uproar
Written by Sarah Mackenzie
Urban Outfitters has found itself in hot water this week, with its ‘Navajo’ range being met with outrage by the Native American community.
Said to be insensitive and a racist attack on an indigenous people, the line features underwear, a strapless dress, cropped t-shirts and handbags- amongst other such ‘Navajo’ pieces.
According to one Native American woman quoted on one website: “The tacky products Urban Outfitters are currently selling referencing Native America, make a mockery of our identity and unique cultures.” And this vocal critic not alone, as many other Native Americans have stepped forward and claimed that the exploitation of their culture through “tacky” products demeans their ancestral heritage.

How To Dress Down A Suit – Part 1
Introduction
After Jos’ comprehensive guide to the lounge suit last week, many readers pointed out that they loved to dress down their suit by utilising other key pieces such as knitwear, t-shirts and the like. With this in mind, Jos and I set out to conquer the whole concept and method of dressing down a suit. Just because suits are traditionally classed as formal wear, it doesn’t mean they have to be pigeon-holed into just that type of look. There are many ways to relax the suit, and that is what we are going to be exploring in detail over the next two days.
In this two part guide, we will be concentrating on the two major ways in which you can create a more relaxed aesthetic whilst wearing a suit. I shall be focussing on simply altering your complimenting pieces when utilising a full suit, and tomorrow Jos will be detailing how to wear your suit pieces as separates in order to create an entirely new look.
