Say "Boozhoo" (Hello) to Kristopher

Kris is wearing a Fancy Bustle dance outfit.  His headpiece or roach is made of leather, eagle feathers, and deer tail hair.  He is wearing a red ribbon shirt and slip-on buckskin moccasins.  

Around his waist, he is wearing a colorful breechcloth with two fancy bustles attached to his back.  The bustles are made of dowels attached in  circular patterns to leather centers .  

They have red and yellow feathers at the tips.  A bustle represents the circle of life.  Fancy Bustle dancers are "fancy" not only with two colorful bustles, but also with fancy footwork.  

They bounce, twist, twirl, and create movements to the beat of the drum and stop with both feet on the ground.
