Gympie: Oh that's right: you cannot bargain with Amira. Her price is firm at $400.00 per costume and she only accepts EUROS and US dollars. I don't think Amira's costumes are expensive, I don't think Eman's are either. I think if you were to buy those costumes in the USA they would cost around $1,500! Yes, I would just stick with Eman and Amira. Sorry about Sahar being rude, you are not the first person to say this. She has always been nice to me. Don't know why. I guess you just have to do what works for you. I think Hallah's costumes are fantastic! I don't know what her quality was like a long time ago, but now she uses many crystals and glass and I really love the designs, the fabrics and the usage of her stones and crystals. She is very high quality and I would recommend her as much as I would the other designers. Just curious-can you post the Greek goddess costume or e-mail me a pic, I'd like to see it out of curiousity? I have two of Hallah's designs and several on order. I met with her in March and she showed me her new designs and they are great. If you go to Sonia's web site (I don't know the address off the top of my head, just do a search for Sonia, belly dance superstars and it will come up), she has four costumes by Hallah and they are all posted in glorious detail!!! She has a gold two piece on the cover page of her site; she has a two piece yellow assuit with turquoise scarabs. In a silly picture, Sonia is wearing the skirt and Jillina is wearing the bra! She also has a red one with paisley appliques that has been featured on the BDSS album covers and posters and she has a two piece black one with giant lotus mofits. I can't believe I know all her Hallah's by heart-I really am a costume junkie!
