One of my friends who went to Ahlan Wa Sahlan this year picked up 4 pieces of new red assuit for me. (Latifa, if you're reading, it was Lisa/Adalia on your tour.)
I'm planning on making a bra and belt set and panel skirt from the pieces, and I'm so excited to read this thread! The fabric is really scratchy, but I'm not too worried since I'll sew the fabric onto a lined belt and bra base, and will have a liner under the panel skirt.
Years ago, Pharonics made an assuit costume with silver fringe and coins on a bra, belt, and skirt. I was just starting to take lessons, and I fell in love with it on Dahlal. So now I'm going to try my hand at recreating the design - Dahlal no longer has the photo on the site, but I printed it out and have it at home. Maybe I'll scan it in and post here.
