The woman is dressed in a buckskin dress used in ceremonies according to Gertrude Van Roekel. The dress is a two piece made from deerskin draped over the shoulders without cutting it into shape. The fringe is made from the edge without adding a piece unless it is too short. The decoration is little metal tabs made cone shaped and grouped to jangle with every movement. The circular decorations are metal studs.
