Answer:

With hand gestures, the sacred art of dancing tells stories from Indian mythology and describes gods, men, animals, plus their emotions. The mood is most commonly portrayed by facial expressions, and hand-eye movements.

The dancers wears either a sari or a long skirt that reach the ankles. They also have jewelry on the head(hair), necklaces, earrings etc. Sometimes, a string of flowers is worn on the head.
