Curatorial Remarks
A young boy would have worn this dance trailer. It is part of a straight dance outfit. A ribbon shirt was most likely worn with this dance trailer. The breechcloth appears to be smaller than normal for this type of dance trailer. Breechcloths typically go down to the knees. The moccasins are Southern Plains style.
