Thread: Hottest Trends in Cairo!

Of those of you who have been in Egypt recently, what are some of the hottest trends on the dance scene? Post pictures please!
..g.:

(OK, you can include other ME countries and Turkey, if you wish!)

It would be kind of funny if Dina wore an over-the-top Fringemonster, just to see all the copycatting and designer knockoffs that would ensue .w.:

Interesting topic!

OK, ok, since work is so slow today, I decided to do my own research. ..g.:

OK. You cover your belly, but leave enough cleavage to lose small children in? Hmmmm....

Too bad about that purple one. It is so pretty but a bit more cover on the boobs wouldn't hurt.

Dalila of Cairo was in Denmark in september and she wore two costumes with really poofy feathery skirts. Spectacularly transparent with backlighting.

here's a vid from the performance

i love the color of this one and the idea of the cutouts but not in this way...it would look better, IMO, if the dress is all in one fabric and have that chiffon-y looking fabric at the bottom for flow and the cutouts on the sides of the hips and maybe at the very top of the dress, but not enough to show the bra.

and omg my chest hurts just looking at that purple one

but i'm digging those poofy feathery skirts (obviously if they weren't transperent) hehe very ballroom actually

I love that yellow

omg just what have Wolverine and Big Bird been up to??????????

Well if the 80's trends keep up, we'll be seeing lots of super long fringe next.

The purple costume...is that an attractive look? It's like morbidly obese boobs

In April I saw a lot of carwash skirts Costumes - Full Costumes - Rosy Outlook - Neenee's Imports, Inc. - CHANGE THIS ON index_enc_zend.php and Costumes - Full Costumes - Twisted Crystals - Neenee's Imports, Inc. - CHANGE THIS ON index_enc_zend.php. There were a lot of skinny ruffles, too. Costumes - Full Costumes - Romance Lives - Neenee's Imports, Inc. - CHANGE THIS ON index_enc_zend.php. (You can see better in the detail shots). There's a lot of chunky beading and fringe going on, too. I also noticed a lot more of the large rhinestone pieces that someone brought up in another post.

LOL

This poor dress is just suffering from design congestion - it's bright+slashed+see through+asymmetrical...if it was two of any of these things, yay! But all of them at the same time is just too busy. The elements fight each other for attention.

I don't know. There's something odd about that thing she's wearing underneath. I can't figure it out!

Asmahan is the one with the turquoise-golden glitzy costume, but where else is she?

yes it looks like a Tarzan-and-Jane-thing from the shape of it...

If the yellow wasn't see through I'd think it would be better, the rows of slits are sort of nice.

I'd totally get that yellow one if the skirt portion wasn't see through.

Dalila designes her own costumes.
