Final answer:

Option (4), The Bandolier bag is a rectangular sash with wide straps, worn across the body and reaching below the waist, and decorated with various motifs; the correct choice is all of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the Bandolier bag is best described by all of the above options. They are rectangular shaped sashes with wide straps, worn across the body with the bag section reaching below the waist. Bandolier bags are decorated on one side with abstract, geometric, and floral motifs in a variety of colors such as blue, black, green, and pink.

These bags have evolved from their early forms made with native-tanned leather and decorated with porcupine quills, into more intricate designs using glass beads, reflecting light and adding movement with ribbons as influenced by trade with Europeans.
