Well you aren't gonna be totally authentic anyway are you?
We covered a bra with matching material to our tunics as.... erm we weren't going bare breated under a gauzy blouse or not! You can see the costume in my gallery: Blonde Ghawazee I think I called the photo and I'm sure you can reach the photo from my profile page. The material had a paisley design but you could do stripes or plain satin with a trim.
Yes you could have a blouse under your tunic or vest with a flesh coloured bra. but then that would have to stay on!
We also have assuit covered bras in our wardrobe which give a hint of authentic and these go both with skirts and melodias.
We danced mostly recognized tribal steps as well as Ghawazee to Egyptian gypsy music and hoped we fused a bit of ancient and modern. Sounds like you are trying to do something similar.
