THE CREATIONS OF ARIZONA-BORN Orlando Dugi, a member of the Diné Nation, are nothing if not dramatic: gowns glittering with delicate beadwork, silks embroidered with symbolic flora and fauna. Some have been exhibited at places like the Denver Art Museum and the Autry Museum of the American West in Los Angeles. While his imagination is fueled by his upbringing-days spent watching his grandmother sew and nights stargazing at his family's sheep ranchDugi also finds inspiration in Santa Fe, which he's called home since 2010. "All the tribal, colonial, and Spanish history-it's all here," he says. "It's very small, but it's also pretty international." New Mexico's capital city is set to draw a global audience as host of the inaugural Santa Fe Native Fashion Week, the first of its kind in the country, held in early May, where Dugi will present highlights from his mens- and womenswear collections. When he's not designing, he enjoys connecting with Indigenous culture on the ancestral lands of the Tewa people-or kicking back with a margarita.

the 2024 hot list WHERE to STAY, CRUISE & EAT NEXT
It's inevitable: Every spring when we pull together the Hot List, our annual collection of the world's best new hotels, restaurants, and cruise ships, a staffer remarks that this latest iteration has got to be the best one ever. After a year's worth of traveling the globe-to stay the night at a converted farmhouse in the middle of an olive grove outside Marrakech or sail aboard a beloved cruise line's inaugural Antarctic voyage-it's easy to see why we get attached.
