The "modern" ornament looks like just 'too much of a muchness'.

I'm amazed that the horse is behaving with all that stuff loaded onto him. You can hardly see him under there.

Sometimes less is more.

That’s my problem with the modern costumes. I can’t imagine indians riding with essentially the best gear on their horses, carrying fishing baskets and buffalo hides. And all the rest. It’s a combination of a bunch of aspects of indian life all at once, all on the same horse. I’m surprised someone hasn’t figured out how to carry a tipi also. No one cured hides, went hunting, fishing, foraging and visiting all at the same time on the same horse.
