SOLD! Black velvet Johara dress $200 includes U.S. shipping
Sold to Monica -- Thanks!
This is a gorgeous costume -- why on earth haven't I worn it? Maybe because I have a couple of black beledi dresses I prefer -- so this one is up for grabs. I never wore it, and I'm not sure the dancer I bought it from did either. It's in excellent condition. Beading and sequining is a rich mix of shades of gold, black, silver, gunmetal, etc, with some rhinestones thrown in for good measure.
This bra is for a big gal! The cups are 8" top to bottom, and 8 1/2 " side to side. Band currently set at about 38, but could go smaller. The dress is 60" long (measured flat from shoulder to hem) and fits snugly (but comfortably) around the neck, with sturdy hooks in the front and the back. Velvet sleeves end in a cascade of black chiffon, trimmed in gold beads.
The dress:
the bra:

Yowza! This is delicious. What's the maximum hip/booty, do you s'pose? And how's the length on you? I'm 5'5", hip in the high 40s and sloooowly shrinking.

Zana, just in case Monica changes her mind... this dress fits me, so I think it would fit you. The hips fit comfortably at 42", could go a little larger or a little smaller.
Jeez, I should have brought this to Raqs America! You could have tried it on! |

Now where the heck did we leave that time machine?!
I suspect it will be dramatic and gorgeous on dramatic and gorgeous Monica, but if anything changes, please think of me. Thanks!

Loosen up -- you might hurt yourself.
This will be awesome on you. Please post pics! (And if it's too short, you know where to send it....)

Yah, Anala. I thought you were selling a black beledi dress so you could get a one! Boy do us busty luscious ladies have radar for the same costumes!!! So when are we going to get smart and start a costume borrowing thingee. Requirements would be that costumes have to be okay for temporary alterations that can be immediately reversible.
Lovely dress, Latifa. I have too much black right now. Need a nice bright color .

Re: Black velvet Johara dress $200 includes U.S. shipping
yay! Dress will go out to Monica tomorrow, and if there's any problem with length or anything, she'll know who to contact...
So glad this dress won't be lonely on my closet shelf any more. Is 4 minutes between posting and selling a record??
