Although traditional skin clothing is still made and worn today, modern Inuit women also employ their design, construction, embroidery and beadwork skills on clothing made with synthetic materials. In fine shops across Nunavut you will find a wide range of such handmade clothing, everything from blazers and parkas to qamit (sealskin boots), as well as an amazing assortment of handcrafted accessories such as hats, slippers and mittens, all sewn with the traditional Arctic style and flair. |
