Here I will share with you views of the many dancing costumes I have created and also a few photos of the time I hosted a party in my home where I had it all decorated like a harem and served a middle eastern meal. It was a fun time! I have been Belly Dancing since 1988 when I first was introduced to “Tribal” belly dancing in the San Francisco Bay Area. Tribal style (or ethnic) is totally different from the “Cabaret” style which I enjoy more because of the wide variety of styles/colors and glamourous costume options. I was introduced to the Cabaret style when I moved to Phoenix, Arizona and joined a troupe.
It took many hours creating the bra and belt part of each costume. I first started with creating a gold and silver set since these two accent colors would coordinate with all of the scarves, skirts, and harem pants I would create. I have so many it is was hard to photograph all of them to show you. I have a new forest green bra and belt set which is stunning and compliments my hair and skin color. A turquoise set is still in the construction stage as I have created my own American Indian beaded design. If you are interested, you can browse some of my beaded jewelry designs I have on my site.
For the ladies visiting my sight, if you are interested with purchasing a bra and belt set I can create one for you. Just send me a full coverage firmly padded bra that fits you comfortably along with your hip measurement and we can start from that point.
