Traditional style Men's Iroquois clothing in miniature. Rosemary chose to include all of the staples of men's traditional clothing, calico ribbon shirt, vest, breech cloth, leggings, and moccasins. She also made a Tuscarora style headdress, called Gustoweh by the Haudenosaunee. Haudenosaunee is what the Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy call themselves. Each of the Six Nations have their own style of Gustoweh. To see what styles men wear from the other Nations visit http://www.sixnations.org.
