==Clothing and dance== {{Unreferenced section|date=May 2020}} The clothing worn during the cueca dance is traditional Chilean attire. Men typically wear a huaso's hat, shirts, a flannel [[poncho]], riding pants, short jacket, riding boots, and spurs. Women wear flowered dresses. The cueca dance itself symbolizes a rooster-chicken relationship. The man initiates the dance by approaching the woman and offering his arm. The woman then accompanies him, and together they walk around the room. They eventually face each other, each holding a handkerchief in the air, and begin dancing. Although they do not touch physically, they maintain contact through facial expressions and movements that convey flirtation and courtship. Throughout the dance, it is customary for the pair to wave a white handkerchief, which is an essential element of the cueca.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}}
