Thread: Dancing with the Stars Inspiration

We haven't had one of these threads in ages...but I always get so inspired by the costumes on Dancing with the stars...Many of them just need to be tweaked slightly (usually lengthened!!!) and they would make perfect belly dance costumes.

Let the fun begin!



Love the ombre:


Reminds me of a Bella (minus skirt):



Love the bra:


Another Turkish-like one:

Something Dina might wear:

To me, the only one aspect of all these costumes that really matters: Hines Ward had a pretend Terrible Towel as part of his costume in week 2 and waved it at the end of the performance. OK, I admit, major Hines Ward fan here, who considers a terrible towel a valid part of a costume ;-)

Love this bedlah, I mean bra and something set Cheryl Burke is wearing:

Ditto for Brooke Burke:

Yet another "bedlah":

Cheryl Burke product endorsement (not connected with DWTS) in a Neckelman's style bedlah:



Apparently, Belly Dance has had an impact on other dance fashions.

well, I can't seem to upload any photobucket pics, but you can buy the DWTS costumes.... RANDALL
quite pricey though.
