The Iroquois people like to wear ornaments like woven sashes, fur and feather neck pieces and feathered caps. Clothing was usually embroidered with dyed moose hair and porcupine quills. Everyday jewelery such as earrings were made from feathers, pendants were made from animal teeth and were hung from thongs.
- The Iroquois made their clothing from soft deerskin. Both men and woman wore leggings, shirts, and moccasins. Women wore a skirt or a dress that covered most of their leggings. The women wore their hair long.

Clothing Of The Iroquois
In an effort to emphasize appropriate dress at camp, we ask that campers do not wear bikini bathing suits at camp (tankini’s, which cover the mid-section are acceptable). In addition, we ask that you do not pack items that expose the midriff, short shorts, see through clothing, etc. Campers wearing these items will be asked to change their clothing.
Iroquois Clothing Information
Laundry services are on the camp premises and we ask that you send colorfast items only. Please be sure to wash all items before packing. We recommend wash and wear clothing only. Each camper has his/her personal clothing washed weekly. In addition, linens are washed for campers weekly.
Campers must bring their own bedding (including blankets and pillows). The mattresses at camp are 30 x 72 (cot size), so please buy sheets to fit accordingly. If you are unable to find sheets this size, the size bigger (twin) will suffice.
