Hey Genevieve- if you're in Atlanta ask Diane Adams about her group's mermaid performance they did a few years ago. It was to a piece of music off of one of Yasmina Ramzy's CDs.

I will definitely ask her next time I run into her. Sounds like a fun performance!

During a little break at the photo shoot a little girl's mother told me her daughter thought I was a real mermaid!

Sira's mermaid costume for the Venus Uprising show- bra and belt by Totally Creative. I forget who designed the skirt- which she put her feet in the tail.

I am just starting to gather things for my own mermaid costume. Every belly dancer needs a mermaid costume!!!

I don't have a particularly clear picture but here is my mermaid costume. This was not an attempt at a pro costume. More like an above average party costume that was heavily influenced by my belly dance costuming.



The skirt was made from the "Marvelous Mermaid/Fabulous Fishtail" skirt pattern available at artemisimports.com. I modified it to add the sheer fin fabric at the bottom and down the center back seam.

Hope you find all the inspiration you need! ..g.:

ohh..... gosh this is inspiring... but is a really different direction that I was dreaming of so far... Qamar youve totally confused me now!

Gorgeous! I love the DCDT costumes... i am totally ripping off that idea if I can find some dark brown fishnet.

Not bellydance but perhaps you will like it anyway. This is my mermaid costume for a burlesque number I do. Our very own Azhia passed on the shelltop to me.

Here are my favorite

Not the awesomest pic, and I'm too lazy to post better ones, but here's my new mermaid-themed Bella. It got ridiculous amounts of compliments when I wore it to a show last weekend!

My handsome little pug pal Buddha also approves of my new costume!

I agree!!! Very beautiful! Eager to see more costumes!!!

check out pics from the Coney Island Mermaid Parade--it was just in the past two weeks. Some of them are quite scanty/crazy, but you'll definitely find good inspiration
