fancy shawl
Decorative shoulder covering
Fancy shawl refers to a style of women's powwow dance characterized by vibrant, heavily fringed shawls worn like butterfly wings.
The dancer's rapid spinning and footwork make the shawl billow and flow: She competed in fancy shawl at the tribal gathering.
The style emerged in the 20th century and emphasizes athleticism and colorful regalia.
