jingle dress
Healing dance attire
A jingle dress is a Native American women's ceremonial garment featuring rows of metal cones that produce a distinctive sound during movement.
The dress originated among Ojibwe peoples and is worn in jingle dress dancing at powwows, where the rhythmic tinkling accompanies healing prayers.
The cones were traditionally made from rolled tobacco lids: She spent months attaching the cones to her jingle dress.
