Mint Green Bella -- SOLD
The color of this costume is fantastic, but I've realized it's just not for me. I'm the first owner and it's only been worn for one short performance and for photos. No bead loss. Comes with bra, belt, necklace, slave bracelets, skirt and half circle chiffon veil.

Measurements:
Bra: set at 29" (max 33") A/B, C--with cleavage
Belt: 34.5"
Skirt: length - 35"

Price: $650 + shipping & insurance

Navy Blue Bella -- SOLD
This baby is still available! If you love the look of a Great Loop, this is the costume for you! The fringe hangs in swags but has great movement. Both the belt and bra are velvet and loaded with rhinestone brooches so it has tons of sparkle! Bra is a halter top. You have your choice of two different kinds of armbands: princess sleeves with drapes or those that go around the wrist. Possibly my favorite part is the necklace which is more delicate than most Bella necklaces. I picked up this costume at the Belgium store and it's only been worn for a handful of performances and photos. Like new condition, no bead loss. Costume includes bra, belt, skirt, princess sleeves, wristlets, headband, necklace and half circle chiffon veil.

Measurements:
Bra: up to 32.5" stretched (set for 29") C/D
Belt: up to 37"
Skirt: length - 37"

Price: $745 + shipping & insurance

Orange Bella -- SOLD
This was my first Bella and I can't believe I'm selling it. So many memories. I still get tons of compliments on it every time I wear it and it's super comfy. The skirt-belt combo makes it any easy one to just toss on and go. The skirt has some big snakey cutouts with orange mesh in it which you could remove if you want to show more skin. No bead loss. Some slight wear on some of the sequins under the arms, but there's still plenty of shine. Comes with headband, two gauntlets and orange half circle chiffon veil. (This was sold but payment fell through so putting it up for sale again.)

Measurements:
Bra: up to 35.5" B/C
Skirt waist: set at 34.5"
Skirt: length - 36"

Price: $545 + shipping & insurance

Final sale. Thanks for looking!

Oh! All three are just gorgeous! I'm bummed they're too short for me... I'm sure they'll get snatched up quick, though!

theothershimmytwin · 01-22-2010, 12:13 PM

OMG. WOW

i love the orange, but it's too short! WOW

eve_adelfi · 01-22-2010, 12:59 PM

These are so PRETTY! I remember seeing you dance on stage in the mint colored one and being utterly amazed at how much you sparkled even from far away. :) Someone will be delighted with these!

VegaDancer · 01-22-2010, 02:27 PM

So pretty!

ANA_bellydancer · 01-22-2010, 03:08 PM

Wow! These are very pretty!!!

lklimchuk · 01-22-2010, 03:15 PM

Wow they are all nice. Intent on the navy blue Bella if it will fit.

I may need the orange for a troupe mate...what is the max for the upper hip. Is there elastic still intact and could be loosened??

lauraw · 01-22-2010, 04:22 PM

Go for it LSco ;-)

LadyLara · 01-22-2010, 04:25 PM

Hey, Monsoon,

The elastic is still in there. It could definitely go a bit bigger since there are very slight gathers when I wear it. I imagine an inch extra at least. I can measure it stretched when I get home from work.

ORANGE = love. Wow. I just bought an orange bella but I love your combo skirt! I could make 36" work but I wish the cups were bigger...I am a D. Boo hooo.

shimmytwin · 01-22-2010, 04:37 PM

Also, I'd love to know who bought that hot pink bella from your site so I can stalk them and get it when they're done! :D

I'm a 32C and I have added padding for more cleavage so a 32D would fit but be busty. Any bigger than that in the orange would be pushing it. But I know how you feel--I love your costumes and I'm always wishing the cups were just a bit smaller -- or that I were a bit bigger :)

The hot pink one was SandraDances. I think she has pictures up in her gallery.

Hi, Monsoon,

So when I measure it flat, it measures 33" but that fits my 34.5" high hip perfectly without muffin top. I'm not quite sure how that works, but it does. Stretching I can get another inch out of it (to 34") and you might be able to get more if you remove the elastic all together.

Love the navy blue one it's so cute.

naiyahayal · 01-22-2010, 09:06 PM

All 3 are beautiful!!!!

NancyAsiya · 01-23-2010, 02:41 PM

I'm so glad someone got the Navy one. I had a serious case of lust for that one...but couldn't do anything about it. lol

monsoondancer · 01-23-2010, 04:20 PM

The orange is going to be too small for her, and we have gone to a different colour scheme now. Thanks for the extra measurement :)

zfejzic · 01-23-2010, 11:19 PM

that mint is amazing!

bellyfina · 01-24-2010, 06:41 AM

LOVE that orange!!!

No problem. I'm sure it will be helpful to others as well :)

Gah, I can't believe I'm even asking...

Would you mind posting the inside cup measurements for the orange?

Marlene · 01-25-2010, 03:23 PM

The navy has always been my favorite when I've seen it come up, but unfortunately beyond my budget. It's a real beauty! Maybe someday.

No problem. They are:
7.25" across (from top of side band across deepest point to other side)
5.5" tall (from middle of top edge down to bottom of side band)

Let me know if you need pictures or something more descriptive about the measurements.

maranajla · 01-26-2010, 09:04 AM

Thank you so much! I am going to measure against my shallowest bra at home to compare. (I had a Bella once but my 32D chest was terrifying in it and I'm afraid of making the same mistake.)

In the performance pic- is the bra padded?

I completely understand. The performance pic is definitely padded. I can't recall if I did for the studio pics.

maranajla · 01-26-2010, 06:51 PM

Sadly, I need to pass as the cups are too small~ thank you again!

LadyLara · 01-28-2010, 12:45 PM

Bump. Orange and mint green still available!

poohbear · 01-28-2010, 01:24 PM

Can't believe these are still available! Sadly they are too small for me : (
