Thread: We LOVE Eman Zaki! (and Hoda as well :))

I know, there poped up new thread with Eman and Hoda's costumes, but I didn't figure out, if it's selling thread or not, so I started this.
I was thinking about thread like this for a long time, so finaly here it is.

This is just for pleasure of everyone, who likes Zaki costumes. Please post photos of yours beloved costumes, or photos that just caught your eyes, doesn't matter who the owner is.

I can't say I adore all of Eman's work, some are too simple to me, but it's just a matter of taste. That's why I started this thread, I will pick my most favourite.

And I would love to see some unique designs! You know what I am talking about - I love all those pharaonic and birdie costumes, but you can see them on many places and they have been produced in several pieces.
Please try to find and share with the others also the unique designs, the "on of a kind"s!
And don't shy, be proud of your costumes! ..g.:

I will start with mine.. this is my first Eman, and I promise I will never ever sell it!!! I bought it from my friend Shereen, who bought it somewhere on her travels around the world. I don't know, who the previous owner was, maybe you can help me, if you ever saw it in past :)
And I am proud, that I have never seen a design like this, so I beleive its really one of a kind (if not so, please enlighten me :))

Wow!

This princessy beauty belonged to my lovely friend Shereen. How could she sold it?!!! ..cr.:

One for the "mass-production" - I am joking :)
It's dream costume... I love the phoenix bird on the bra and arm bands, and the frontal drape is simple and works great.

Beautiful costume, Sandra. My first and only Eman is the "Secret of the Sphinx". I don't have any photos of me in it, but most of you will know which one it is. I absolutely love that costume. It makes me feel beautiful and powerful like Cleopatra.

Hi Shahla, you are happy woman! All the "pharaonic" designs are my favourite (Under the sun, secret of the sphynx, pharaoh fantasy and so on). I dream of having one of those.

I am stalking my dance friend from Prague, who has this one. I hope she will sell it to me one day. But it's quite new to her, so I think she will dance long time in it until she move it on..

this is awsome shot:

Yup, that's the one. I'm also in love with Eman's Hollywood III costume. One day, I'll own one of those.

This Eman bra and belt set, which I got from Tanya LV in September for my birthday is my first designer set. The bra and belt is super classy, I plan to hang onto it for several years. Get lots of compliments on it.

Here's my Starfish Hoda Zaki:


I really should take close-up photos of the beadwork - so pretty! I love the little stars on the armbands.

I saw this on bellydancestore.biz - the colour looks great on you ;)

I'm totally in love with the first costume posted on this thread! wow!

All of you girls look lovely!

Hi girls, thank you for the nice compliments, but this is the only Zaki I have, so now it's your turn - show me your beauties :))

Ok, this is not my costume, but I bought it for a friend, who is not familiar with ebay. When it came to my address, I immedately jumped in and took some photos. It's pretty, but unfortunately not my colour (as you can see on the photo :D )

(sorry for the background, it has not been photoshoped yet :))

I saw very similar design in Stacey Lizette's bazaar, but it's more pinkish. I love tracking costumes :))

Kiyaana- you look dreamy in that one!!! And we like the same detail- the stars in the armbands are SO sweet charming!!!! *sigh*

Everyone looks amazing. Eman and Hoda do beautiful work.
Mathkitty- A gazed longingly at that set before TanyaLV bought it. It didn't fit me- but OMG- so classy, unique and gorgeous!

Here's a Zaki I just got from Razia, excuse the sleeping look...

And here's the one from Damiena, formerly Ahava's!

I love this one! I saw it on DVD By dancers for dancers, where Ahava danced incredible shimmi solo. This costume has very good vibes :)

It really caught my eye when BellydanceStore.biz had you modeling it on the site.

The photo is sideways, but I really like this one that Morgana recently put up to sell:

Huge Eman fan. :)
This one was Leila's

This one I'm selling


This one was also Leila's. LOVE it!!!!


Don't have a good photo of this one yet, but opalescent pink windowpane saidi dress! Cuteness abounds!


This was my favorite for a while. I had it in lime green and then dark red!


Also don't have any good pics of this one yet...but selling it. The orange is has pink opalescent shine and is SO pretty

perhaps this should be an eman addicts thread LOL

This is my first custom and designer costume (by Hoda). I love this color!
