Thread: top SEVEN costume color choices

I'm making these scarf sets in Hawaii, they are a set of seven to represent the seven different (main) islands and was thinking it may be cool to do something similar for bellydance veils..

So was thinking of making a gift set or package deal of the 7 most popular color choices to go with the 7 most popular costume color choices

What would you say are the most popular costume color choices?
This is the list I made and some veils that would go with each..

1) red and burgundy costume
veils- ruby glisten, or fire, crimson fire with burgundy

2) turquoise costume
veils- turquoise island, bird of paradise

3) deep blue costume
veils- sirena or hummingbird

4) teal
veils- tickle me teal or kata

5) royal purple
veils- heaven sent or kata

6) pastel colored costumes (would also include white)
veils- bint mint would cover pastel pink, turquoise, mint and lilac all in one

7) metals..gold, silver and black or tribal inspired/triberat
veils- one of the spanish dancer veils

Here are my winninng combinations, mostly skirts and tops:

Burgundy costume:
Wine merkaba

Turquoise costume:
Hummingbird and bird of paradise

Blue: Merkaba

I am fond of having a yellow/gold/copper bottom of a skirt, which emphasizes its movement.

I'm wondering if you need *both* teal and turquoise on the list, if that results in a need to cram gold and silver into sharing a slot.

was thinking about lumping turquoise and blue together, and green with chartreuse and teal..

it also seems that brown costumes are a continuing trend. as opposed to back in the day when brown costumes were lumped into gold/bronze/caramel, it now seems that brown for the sake of brown is very popular....

hot pink is another color, which I think will never die. Seems a lot of people prefer wering fiuchsi to wearing a pastel shade, for fear looking pasty or wahed out.

Speaking of which, I would LOVE to find a veil that matched the brown and turquoise Bella that i own....hint hint hint :)

PS Jesennia- your veils move so beautifully...i barely have to do anything when i am performing....they do it for me! Thank you so much!!! ..g.:

and veils that go with browns/bronzes also go with leopard print - another popular 'color'. :)

What about black? MY favorite....
Very hard to find black veils that don't look like a funeral drape....
