Say, "Boozhoo" (Hello) to Krysta

Krysta is dressed in Female Traditional regalia.  Her outfit is made of buckskin with fringed trim.  These fringes represent a waterfall.  Her upper chest is adorned with fringes secured with shells.  She is wearing a bone necklace.  

She is holding an eagle wing fan in one hand and a navy, red-fringed shawl in the other.  She also is wearing buckskin moccasins.  

Female Traditional dance outfits may also be made of calico or velvet fabric.  Cowry shells, Elk's teeth, and porcupine quills may also be used as accents.  Female Traditional dancers may dance in a weaving pattern or may dance in one spot.  

When dancing, their feet remain in constant contact with Mother Earth.  Also, Female Traditional dancers may raise their eagle wings fan during a song to show respect.
