    I am confused by this costume. A belt AND a thong to match the bra?

    I think these are vintage burlesque costumes. Not dance costumes.

    THONG??!?!? . . . uh, I'll pass . . . thanks. ;-0

    Seriously, though, I agree that they must have been for performances other than bellydance. I mean, Turkish costumes from that era were pretty risque but the thong is a little much.

    True, it isn't a proper belly dance costume, but it has really interesting potential for somebody tiny...you know...add a skirt.

    Ive revamped a similar one before - added a real bra to the cups which are padded wire frames. Used the thong as a base for a belt. This ones belt is pretty cool. Maybe the thong could become an arm ornament. : )

    If you look at her pictures, it has the same photos listed for vintage STRIPPER costume!!!
    The dancer cannot be separated from the dance, she also cannot be separated from the history of dancing, from the line of dancers and teachers leading to her.
