Thread: I'm drooling over here: New stuff at Belly Dance Store

I wonder if there will be any more pharonix going up?

Oh man, I NEED that leopard print one!! ..l;, No, seriously, I do...it's been part of a plan of my dance partner's and mine for years.

Okay, I will share this costume which I wanted to buy but I suddenly got kicked in the pants by the economy:



Makes me want a truffle. ..l;,

Ohhh lordy! Im dying for a Sultana or a Banoora and still kicking myself over missing the beautiful butterfly one that was there last year!

Both that ruby red and the black and red flower -- really great.

Yes that's the one that caught my eye as well, it's fantastic! so elegant!

Wow. That red and black pants costume paired with the flame platforms is very Evel Kneivelish looking. I wonder if one can bellydance on a motorcycle while flying over the grand canyon?..g.:

I know sahars are more expensive. but I'm totally surprised these two haven't sold yet

I did get some fun fabric (my Crazy Candy costume) made in Israel at Dancer in Clinton, MD a few years ago, but their selection is understandably limited.

Hi Kiyanna, have you been to Wolff-Fording here in Richmond, VA? They're a dance costume manufacturer who also carries dance fabrics: colored and printed spandex, stretch velvet, chiffon, organza, tulle....etc.

See you soon! Fionna

Yea...the color is totally drool worthy!

I may be showing my ignorance here, but I've never heard of Mumtaz before today, and now I'm totally in lust and thinking of buying one! Does anyone have a Mumtaz- what's the quality like? I'm a D, so I need good support. Anyone?

His name is Mamdouh as well and she used to list him as Mamdouh on her site, but obviously had to change with Randa Kamal's designer having the same name.
Mamdouh Mumtaz is in the Abla family and used to work at Madame Abla's studio. I've had a couple of his costumes and love them. They last WELL, he uses good quality fabric, you can TOTALLY see the Abla quality in his ruching designs. I love his looks- they are incredibly full of bling. Bling-full! Bling-ilicious! ..l;, He doesn't use "Dina style" cups- and I believe a lot of girls who are more curvy up top feel more comfort and support with this more traditional style.

One of his styles I bought a couple years ago the shoulder/halter straps were just lycra. Which was shall we say rather ineffective in the support department. It was a very simple fix though- I created under-straps with same color bias tape (although I'd recommend grosgrain ribbon- I simply had the bias tape on hand). He has a couple new costumes with this same thing going on- but that's nothing that would prevent me from getting and enjoying his spectacular sparkly bling-ilicious creations!!!

I didn't know about this!!!!! Yay! Thanks for letting me know.

Dear Kitty,

I enjoy seeing you model the lovely costumes BUT PLEASE loose the hideous red wig. It does not compliment you at all.
