AUTHOR: James Hagengruber, Billings Gazette
Before the invasion of silk, sequins and designer labels, the highest fashion west of the Mississippi was the elk-teeth dress.
There was no mistaking the status of a Crow woman wearing her tribe's signature gown of blue or indigo trade wool covered by 500 elk canine teeth. They wore their wealth on their sleeves. Because only two teeth from an elk are suitable, each dress represented years of hunting and hard work.
Note: The elk-teeth dress is often worn in the women's traditional dances at northern pow wows today.
