Algonquin Clothing

In the Algonquin tribe they made their own clothing. They were mostly made out of animal skin, bird and fish skins. Clothing is important in the Algonquin culture because the Algonquins needed to show their culture and to protect their body. It is important to learn what's special about these clothing's because it shows the level of authority, gender, events and special events happening. Also, to identify each other's tribal identity.

The Algonquin women generally wore a dress made of two complete deerskin that were fastened on the shoulders and the sides, sometimes with a belt. The women's sleeves were removable which means that they were able to take it off and place it back on their shoulder. Some women sometimes wore skirts made of deerskin overlapped on one side. Women wore knee-length deerskin leggings gartered below the knee.

They were decorated with leather strips and with dyed porcupine quills. Women also wore a cloth band or a cap to decorate their hair. Finally, women wore moccasins just like the men did as shoes.

What Changed Today

SUP

YO!

Now that we know what women and men wore in the native times you must be wondering about the changes today.

Today we have clothing for many different occasions just like the Algonquin people. We have fancy, casual, sleep-time, party and more. Today we still ware moccasins but an updated version depending on which country and city you are in. For Example, other countries and cities ware the same moccasins just like the native Algonquins.

One difference from today to the Native Algonquins is that we came up with clothing that are not too meaningful like the Algonquin clothing. Also, if men and women want face paints they do them for parties, not for everyday use.

Another difference is that people today don't ware the same clothing as someone else. They like to ware things to match their personality.
