| # | Item | Description |

| 1 | Dress, Native-American-style | Pocahontas is depicted in a gorgeous tan rawhide dress with fringe made out of the same material adding depth and accents to the dress. |

| 5 | Raccoon, stuffed, toy | This stuffed raccoon toy represents Pocahontas’s raccoon friend Meeko. Pocahontas is close with many animals, but Meeko is her best friend. |
| 6 | Wig, black, long | Pocahontas has very long black hair that is also very straight, which you can achieve with the help of this cute wig. |

Pocahontas wears a stunning garb based on real Native-American clothing. This clothing is made of rawhide and leather, which is animal skin, and fits in with the timeline of her story. Her style is very carefree and almost kind of wild.
She completely forgoes any shoes, instead preferring to roam around barefoot, as was done by Natives during that time.
Her dress is very simple, with just a few fringe details, and the only accessories she has is an armband and necklace. For the sake of the costume, tan flats are a good option for your feet so that you don’t have to walk barefoot.
Another cute item that would make the costume even better, is to have a stuffed raccoon, like Pocahontas’s friend & pet Meeko, that you could take around with you while in costume.
