Belly Dance Costume


Hello everyone! My article today is about Belly dancing costume! Belly Dancing is a dance originating from the Middle East that involves lots of hip and belly movement. It is a good workout for you abs (obviously).  It is danced to percussion music where the dancers move to each beat. Belly Dance in the Middle East is called "Raqs Sharqi" (رقص شرقي) or "raqs beledi" (رقص بلدي)  

Belly dancing costume is based on ancient Arab traditional clothes. Most belly dancing costumes consist of a short fitted and highly decorated bra and either a skirt or harem pants with a hip scarf. Most belly dance costumes are decorated with coins, bead and sequins. Shoes are rarely worn in Belly Dance.

Here are the outfits I put together on Stardoll.


1. I used: 'Beaded Bikini Top' from Riviera, 'Plain Black Bikini Bottom' from Bird's Eye, 'Sarong' from Archive and 'Louise Necklace' from Glam'R'Us


2. I used: 'Hot Buy Eyelet Crochet Top' from Pretty in Love, 'Belly Dance Hip Scarf' from Folk, 'Pretty Skirt' from Archive, 'White Enamel Bracelet' from Royalty store, 'Pearl Diadem' from Splendid


3. I used: 'Bollywood Belly Top' from Folk, 'Bollywood Skirt' from Folk, 'Bollywood Short Necklace' from Glam'R'Us, 'Umrao Bangles' from Epiphany x2


4. I used: 'On Stage Top' from Rio, 'Belly Dance Hips Scarf' from Folk, 'Gold Ski Pants' from Apres Ski, and 'Gypsy Earrings' from Glam'R'Us


I am interested in Belly Dancing and have been for many years. I think the main reason for liking Belly Dance so much is because of one of my favourite musicians Shakira does Belly Dance. I myself have tried to learn Belly dance but I was unsuccessful because I only had a DVD and didn't have access to classes because I live in a rural area

Thank you for reading my article! I hope you enjoyed it.
