What are some common designs and colors for Choctaw ribbon skirts?
Hello! I want to make a ribbon skirt for my partner for her birthday without ruining the surprise, so I'm looking for color and design suggestions! She didn't get to grow up with the culture and has been reconnecting with her culture for the last few years, so I don't have anyone from her family that I can ask and I want it to be special for her. I've looked up various methods for making them and I have that down, but I want to make one with any common colors or designs to start with. Some that I found online look incredible, but the last time we talked about ribbon skirts when it came up, she was iffy about the complex designs. So if I wanted to make a simple ribbon skirt for my partner for everyday wear, are there any suggestions or advice when making one? She has mostly an alt style, so for something simple I'm leaning towards a black fabric with purple ribbons and possibly lace ribbon or a neutral colored fabric with ribbons.
