hihi - i'm sure i just replied to this post yet somehow it's not here. it's also possible that i'm slightly off my rocker at the moment. hmmm.

anyway, it depends on your budget. there are lovely bra and belt sets on isis exchange for $100 USD.

If I recall you said you were English. If you are in the UK, check out our bazaars. They carry budget costumes as well as high end and usually choose well. There's farida, aladdinscave,whirling dervish, forbidden fruits, hilary thacker as well as more local ones not on the internet so one near you as they say. We have a NW bazaar with lovely skirt , top and veil sets for £40 and beledi dresses for £30 as well as a designer style dress for £50.
Check out King of the Nile on ebay.
If you are going back to Marmaris, you'll find lots to suit. Amongst the ill-filling and tasteless stuff in bazaars , I always found there was something good quality and suitable. And if you like the "traditional" Turkish bedlah with loads of fringe you might NOT like the pared down Egyptian Lycra 2 piece ( but I saw that style being made in Antalya also). Most good sets come with a head dress and veil also gauntlets and in Turkey a neck lace or neckband and anklets.The shop I visited in Marmaris market had sets of varying quality and prices. You do tend to get what you pay for
