Split Elk Leather Dress by Black Hawk Creations

The sleeveless-design dress is created by Barb Haskell of Black Hawk Creations. This stunning northern plains style dress is made from breathable, machine washable split elk hide. We have found that this is as close a material as we can find to resemble the old style brain tanned hides Meticulous attention to detail is given to all Barbara's hide work. The seams are all hand sewn, and /or blind stitched. The fringe is all painstakingly hand cut. This is a very versatile garment. On warm days, this can be worn sleeveless, or with a white cotton chemise style top. When the weather chills down, or if more formal Pow Wow dance regalia is needed, the addition of one of the available capes will definitely fit the bill. Capes are available in a late 1800's-early 1900’s Kiowa or Crow style. Barb also creates beautiful Plains style one-piece dresses inspired by the Sioux, Crow, Cheyenne, and Kiowa. Painstaking research has been done on these wearable pieces of art, to bring you the finest Regalia you can purchase!! Modern Native inspired leather garments are also in Barbara's repertoire of creations, such as Vests, Bolo style Jackets, Skirts, Tunic tops, and Halter Tops. These can be ordered as plain garments awaiting your own personal decorative touch, or be decorated with bone hair pipe, beadwork etc.
