Costume - Page 3

Hi Kute Nurse,

Getting back to the original topic, I've purched a bra/belt set from Isis Exchange (on a whim) and recently had a chance to perform in it. If you get it custom made, like I did, make sure you give exact, correct measurements - I allowed an inch or so for adjustments on the belt, and it ended up a smidge too big (but isn't that what safetypins are for?)

It's incredibly comfortable to dance in, and I'm saving up to get another in a different colour or a complete costume (if I win the lottery!)

Mine took about 8-10 weeks to arrive, so I hope you weren't needing something from them in a hurry.

Awesome! I will definately think about purchasing a costume from them. Their prices are wonderful!

Ooooh, costumes...

Send me to "What Were They Thinking (aka UBDC)" hell if you like, but I want this one

One of the bra cups looks a bit like a winking eye, but I don't think this is a candidate for UBDC hell. The black brings the bright colors nicely into line and it is a very cool costume in a modern art sort of way. Go for it, Aniseteph!

Very pretty costume. I purchased this hip scarf, I can't wait to get it. I ordered the turquoise with the turquoise beads. I am not certain what the difference is, but the turquoise with turquoise beading is twice the price as the turquoise with white beads...Does anyone know why?

I think the beading is a bit more luxurious on the more expensive ones. Luxurious is GOOD!

As for the black/yellow one I shall have to just go and gaze at it adoringly now and then. It wouldn't fit into my lifestyle, not when I feel I'm being dangerously ostentatious if I wear my harem pants to class. As for what a less than modern young body would look like in it.... eurgh, I'm raining on my own parade here. Dream costume for when I'm 20 years younger, a size 10 without stretch marks, and an amazing belly dancer

That costume is a real modern art number! I'm not so sure about the colourway, but I love the design!
Aniseteph it doesn't matter what age, size, shape or how terrific you are as a dancer, you can *always* justify bling!

KuteNurse · 11-25-2007, 07:57 PM

I agree! You should be able to wear anything you wish!! Maybe Santa will bring it for you! It is pretty!

Yshka · 11-26-2007, 02:36 AM

Wow they really are quite nice for those prices!! Aniseteph, that yellow one looks great in a sort of modern art way. I liked the one Gisela posted as well. I love this dress:

Gorgeous pro Belly dance Costume / evening gown Belly Dance Costumes Hip Scarves and belly Dancing accessories by Isis Exchange

though cups do look a bit pointy and I don't really like that.

Shanazel · 11-26-2007, 03:22 AM

There are some very pretty costumes on this site.; the one Yshka chose is particularly nice. In the world where I have a perfect figure, I might go for this one just because it is unusual:

NEW - Gorgeous Metallic silver pro belly dance costume Belly Dance Costumes Hip Scarves and belly Dancing accessories by Isis Exchange

though this one is my favorite:
