The Jingle Dress Tradition
Native American dancers. Jingle Dress is a Native American Powwow dance performed by women. The regalia is elaborately ornamented; the metal cones create percussive sound as the dancer moves.
From wikipedia:
The traditional jingle dress dance is characterized by the jingle dress and light footwork danced close to ground. The dancer dances in a pattern, her feet never cross, nor does she dance backward or turn a complete circle. Compared to the original dance, the contemporary dance can be fancier, with intricate footwork and the dress design is often cut to accommodate these footwork maneuvers. Contemporary dancers do often cross their feet, turn full circles and dance backwards. Such moves exemplify the differences between contemporary and traditional jingle dress dancing.
