Powwow Dance Styles

Jingle Dress Regalia

Jingle dresses feature several rows of jingle cones made from metal snuff can lids. Contemporary style jingle dresses are beautifully decorated with ribbon work and appliquéd designs and are worn with matching beaded leggings, moccasins, purse and hair ornaments.  Dancers sometimes wear eagle or other feathers and plumes and carry a fan which is raised during the honor beats of the song.  The contemporary style of this dance features intricate, controlled footwork and dancers demonstrate poise, endurance and grace.
