Go for the Big Bows Sustainably made by the NY based designer Collina Strada, these masks are ready to party (in your living room). The mix of colors and prints makes the oversized-bow design all the more impactful. Each mask is unique, since they are made of deadstock materials from previous Collina Strada collections. Plus, with every face mask purchased, 3 are donated to the organization Seeding Sovereignty to help Indigenous-owned businesses. Available for purchase on CollinaStrada. com, where instructions are also posted to alternatively DIY!
