Regalia and
Dance Stales: The dancers' outfits or clothing, commonly known as
regalia, are all handmade from various natural and synthetic materials.
These may include sinew, yarn, cloth and hides. Friends and family members
often help in the design and construction of an individual's regalia
rendering it unique and very special. Please remember that a dancer's
clothing is called "regalia" or "outfit", and not a
"costume."
Dance
Styles: Six dance categories exist within the Pow Wow. Among the men
there are Traditional, Grass, and Fancy, and among the women there are
Traditional, Jingle Dress, and Fancy Shawl. Both style of dress and dance
indicate a dancer's category.
