The Diné artist created a collection with Polo that celebrates her Navajo roots—and kicks off the label's inaugural program.

In mid November, Glasses—a seventh-generation Navajo textile artist who skateboards in her free time—visited Ralph Lauren’s tony offices in New York City ahead of her launch with Polo Ralph Lauren as part of the program, which links artisans with the label’s creative teams to make a collection. The space, outfitted in dark wood and green tartan along with a grand piano in the foyer, looked more like someone’s grandfather’s Upper East Side manse than the HQ for a fashion brand.
“Early on, I worked with a lot of natural sheep colors because my late grandmother, Nellie, used to stockpile all this wool she wasn’t using. She’d spin it for fun,” Glasses recalled. Along with her brother Tyler—who’d already begun learning weaving from Grandma Nellie, a revered rugmaker and weaver—Glasses used those scraps to practice, or to finish up Tyler and her grandmothers’s projects .
