Native American Woman White Leather Dress I Wedding Dress PWD107

The Native American Woman's Wedding Dress is a handcrafted white leather ceremonial dress featuring vertical geometric beadwork panels, feather motifs, and floor-length arm fringe. Its refined design suits traditional Indigenous wedding ceremonies.

Material Detail

The dress is made from natural tanned white leather with a smooth, soft texture. Size 11/0 glass beads in turquoise, purple, and blue create the vertical geometric bands and feather accent using nylon thread. Matching white leather fringe extends along the long cape sleeves, chest ties, and lower skirt hem.

Construction Method

Each wedding dress is hand-stitched by Indigenous artisans with no machine embroidery. The classic two-hide construction features long draped wing sleeves and hand-applied beaded strip panels. Decorative beadwork is applied directly to the leather, while all fringe is cut directly from the same hide panels.

Visual & Design Detail

The white leather dress features a straight, full-length silhouette with a boat neckline and draped cape sleeves lined in floor-length fringe. Three vertical geometric beadwork strips in vibrant turquoise and purple frame a central feather motif on the bodice, balanced by vertical chest fringe ties and a heavily fringed skirt hem.
