Just a few short weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending Rakkasah West 2016. \u00a0One of the ensembles I spotted, and absolutely fell in love with, were the costumes worn by troupe Neshee Dolu. \u00a0This troupe is directed by\u00a0my friend Sara Shrapnell<\/a>, belly dance instructor and my co-author for the upcoming “Becoming a Belly Dancer: From Student to Stage.” \u00a0 What I fell in love with is how simple and elegant these ensembles look on a wide variety of body types. \u00a0Since I know her troupe will be wearing different costumes next year, I think I may have to pick up one of these ensembles for myself. \u00a0If you find this ensemble appealing for yourself, or your troupe, scroll blow this image for click-through links to the Dahlal<\/a> website.<\/p>\n

Happy Costuming,
