Both wear blue and gold blouses, magenta and gold pleated dhoti-style skirts, gold waist belts with round medallions, gold headpieces, layered necklaces with red beads and pendants, and drop earrings. The dancer on the left has her hands on her hips, and the dancer on the right holds one hand raised in a mudra.
