Truthfully that looks a lot like some of the stuff the Athabaskans make and wear. I know it's really weird, but most of it does have that almost mu-mu look with the other ornamental bands of "scrap" fabric. Also, my guess is those big flowers might be cut caribou fur. Honestly, it could be a gift from someone. I wouldn't believe it either, but Joe's ex wife showed up in the blue speckled sister looking dress to that one when we had a meeting with her about their son.
I'll see if I can dig up some pictures online of modern native stuff. There should be some fairly easily findable since the inter tribal conference is coming up fairly shortly. But it's time to leave for work now.
