I like Dilek´s dancing even though I think it is not particularly Turkish or does not represent authentic Rom dance. For that it is too polished and also choice of her costume and music reminds me more of "american gypsy dance" like one by Dalia Carella (and I love this style but it has very different feeling than Turkish)

I find it a bit funny though that on other clips by Dilek where she dances "common belly dance" she seems to have much more Turkish styling... she also reminds me of another Turkish-born dancer Fatima Serin, who also looks more western with her styling than Turkish because of Egyptian/Western dance training. Both are fantastic dancers though

Here is one clip of Fatima:
