Chickisaw Regalia

kyflutedancr · 04-14-2006, 07:41 PM

Hey all. I was wondering if anyone knew of the type of regalia a historic Chickasaw dancer would wear at pow wow. I am building my regalia on the tribal colors and i have started it with mostly historic styles and materials, such as the "pioneer" style work/ribbon shirt and the old style 3 band broadcloth breechclout and tabs. If anyone has any old pictures, info, or suggestions, it would really be appreciated. Thanks all.

I've never seen Chickasaw men wear their stomp outfit in a powwow arena. Most Chickasaw men dress according to style of dance (fancy, southern straight, sometimes grass if they have northern blood too). If your'e still interested, look for pictures of the tribal dance troupe.
