She was born into the Raven Clan in 1955 in Hydaburg Alaska, a settlement in the state's southeastern panhandle formed from three ancient Haida villages consolidated in 1911. An international boundary severed Alaska's Haida from those on the Queen Charlotte Islands, now known as Haida Gwaii. Raised in Ketchikan, Grant is a renowned fashion designer and traditional Haida artist. Her garments, ceremonial button blankets and spruce-root hats are treasured by Haida people as expressions of living culture. A sense of Haida identity is the creative force behind her fashion labels Feastwear and Dorothy Grant. Her work stems from "Yaagudaang" a Haida word for "respect of one's self", especially her Feast Wear & Dorothy Grant Fashion Labels. Yagudaag, is a Haida word and concept, which means to "have respect for yourself and for all those you encounter". It is a concept of daily living. It's where Haida children were intuitively taught and raised with this concept. From smoke and pet free home Same day shipping
