Thread: Aug/03/11 - WTF "costume" from Amazon

USA! USA! USA! USA!
Wearing this makes me patriotic, right?



Amazon.com: Stars and Stripes Belly Dance Costume: Everything Else

Yowsah! She forgot her skirt!!... not that that would make it all better! Scary thought: I wonder how many of these have been purchased?

I would wear it for the 4th, or a political fundraiser (with something to cover my ass)

On the right dancer, for the right event, and with a skirt, I think this could work extremely well. In all other situations, not so much.

Anybody remember those turkish bra and belt sets, and they'd make them with an American flag design? They were always on ebay when I first started belly dancing and they always made me laugh.

Yes, and considering how common they used to be, how can I not find a picture of them online?

I know! You really can't find a photo online, I tried too!

I like to think that, somewhere, there is a giant shipping container stuffed wtih those bra and belt sets and the owner is just waiting for belly dance fashion to tip back to turkish v-belt sets with a patriotic theme!

Maybe they sent them to Africa or South America like they do with preprinted shirts and hats congratulating the losing team on winning the Superbowl? I just hope some poor Turkish seamstress didn't have to chop them in half and frankenstein them two-by-two into blue costumes with white stars and red costumes with white stripes!
