When it comes to sexy women Halloween costumes, remember that though you can show a lot of skin when you are going to be going to an adult function, you may not want to use this holiday to wear next to nothing. Sexy does not always mean showing a lot of skin, but rather, choosing very carefully what type of skin you want to show off. If you are going to a work function, perhaps wearing something super sexy and revealing is not the best idea. It’s a costume, but is that how you want your coworkers to see you for the rest of the year? It’s an image they may not soon forget.

How America Created The Belly Dance Costume
By Angela Badolato

What we know today as the typical belly dance costume is influenced by the glamour of Hollywood on the folkloric ethnic outfits of the Middle East. The beginning of the use of a decorated bra, embellished hip belt and bare midriff, originated from the influence of vaudeville performers such as Mata Hari - who created her costume from Victorian Orientalist pictures of "harem girls". The artworks of the Orientalists were more glamorous and scantily clad interpretations of the traditional folkloric outfits worn by traditional Middle Eastern dancers.

The traditional Middle Eastern dance costume and folkloric dress was more like a long kaftan like dress, (which both men and women wore) and the hip belt was a simple piece of cloth that is typical of what Hollywood and popular art would show gypsy dancers wearing. The bare midriff was first publicly exposed when the first nite club and cabaret venues appeared, which resulted in an outfit that was more revealing for the excitement of vaudeville and nite club audiences.

Early Hollywood films representing "harem dancers" used the glittery bra and hip belt set with chiffon and see through fabrics, which was then picked up by Egypt who started their own style of the "cabaret" dance costume. What we now typically see as the belly dance costume is actually called "cabaret" style that is promoted and worn by performers in the nightspots of Egypt.

Today, modern belly dancers are often expected to wear the cabaret style of costume. However, the dance is also a folkloric dance that encourages lovers of the dance to give homage to the roots and traditions that created a diverse style of costuming influenced by the coming together of many folkloric cultures.

The development of belly dance is influenced by many cultures and this has created a variety of styles of costuming. The influence of the Gypsies, or Roma, brings full circle skirts that have formed the flamenco dance costume. The East-Indian influence brings the gold and silver jewelry and coins, vibrant colors and use of silks to the dance. The Middle Eastern cultures bring the influence of the full dress outfit, which has roots in ancient cultures like Egypt where long robes of natural fibers were worn.

With the influence of Hollywood, Mata Hari and the new club look of 19th Century Egypt, the popularity for more scantily clad dancers resulted in a lower "hip" belt that exposed more of the belly. The cabaret costume as influenced by Mata Hari's seductive outfits to this day tends to give the impression that Middle Eastern and belly dance is primarily an erotic dance. In America and the Middle East the dance is recognized as an art form, which requires a high skill level, yet the presentation is still highly suggestive.

Both Middle-eastern and American cultures are still coming to terms with the intoxication of the bare belly! In Egypt, there are moves to cover the belly back up and reduce the amount of public exposure of the body in the belly dance costume. It is traditional for the Egyptian cabaret style belly dancer to cover the belly with gauze so as not to expose bare flesh.

While in America, the belly dance costume is becoming a fashion statement of women's return to their sensual self. American Tribal Belly Dance has brought a new twist to costume combinations. The American Tribal style uses a combination of both folkloric and modern costuming influences that move away from the typical glittery cabaret style and emphasize a more ritualistic way of adorning your own interpretation of what belly dance evokes for you.

Go figure 8! Women are still coming to terms with the magic of their bellies and the combination of both the erotic and the sacred that create the mystique of a woman's body through out all times and cultures. The revival of "tribal" ways of adorning the belly dance costume in America reiterates the importance of the sacred roots of women dancing to express their personal beauty and power.

Belly Dancing Clothes - To Buy Or to Make? - Belly Dance Costume

Belly Dancing Clothes - To Buy Or to Make?

By Tanya Haden Tebb

Finding belly dancing clothes can prove taxing if you are just starting out because although belly dancing is quickly becoming one of the most popular forms of modern fitness, belly dancing costumes themselves are still fairly difficult to come by because many of the best ones must be imported. However, in recent years more and more local and online stockists have begun to appear.

Few are lucky enough to have a local stockist and therefore they must either shop online or make their own belly dancing costumes. Here are some guidelines to help you find the best belly dancing clothes.

Buying Belly Dance Clothes Online - Such as Belly Dance Costume

Buying belly dancing clothes online can pose a problem because with most of them being imported from overseas the sizes tend to vary so you must carefully take your measurements and check these with any online stockist you decide to buy from. Even having done so do not be surprised if the fit is still not exact, but do not let this deter you as any adjustments needed will probably be minor.

When you do manage to find a stockist who supplies a good fit be sure to bookmark their details as this should be your preferred place to shop in the future.

Most websites that sell belly dancing clothes do explain the difficulty with sizing so be sure to read their recommendations before making your selection.

Making Your Own Belly Dance Clothes ie. Belly Dance Costume

Most belly dancers will need some sewing skills at one time or another to sew beads or sequins that have come loose or fallen off as they tend to do over time. Why not take it one step further and try sewing your own costume altogether?

Depending on you level of skill in sewing it can be quite easy to cut out a pattern from an existing costume that you or a friend might have and make adjustments to suit you.

Alternatively buying a commercial pattern is an easy method of getting started especially if it is your first time. I have not found all that many patterns available but will share with you one of the better resources for belly dance costume patterns that I have found ArtemisImports. These can be ordered online and it is always best to order just one pattern first to see how you find the results.

Now many major pattern making companies offer a wide range yet, but I have often found great patterns that can be converted to my liking in the fancy dress section.

The best thing about making your own costume of course is that yours will definitely be totally unique to you and you can add or subtract from the recommended coins, sequins, beads etc to make it more to your personal style.

Sure, all girls like the puffy dresses and sparkly accessories that go along with the traditional princess attire. They probably already have a dress or three as well as all the tiaras and shoes to go with them. This is a stage most little girls go through, but Egyptian princess costumes have a new and interesting twist.

With Egyptian princess costumes your daughter can have the best of both worlds: a more interesting historical feel as well as the beauty and royalty of a princess. She can be the Queen of the Nile. She can have the brave and independently beautiful looks of Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt.

The traditional princess garb really is boring and predictable compared to what you can do with Egyptian princess costumes. For a summer costume you can get one that will give you plenty of room to breathe, or you can have the flowing robes of a beautiful Egyptian style full length dress.

Trade in those rosy cheeks and lips for some bronzing powder and heavy black eyeliner. No more need for a tiara or wand. You want thick bangles and bracelets instead. And swap those heels for barely-there sandals.

Getting an Egyptian princess look is simple, fun and original. It's a great way to bring a little history into the costume scene. Egyptian princess costumes can be used for any dress up occasion, Halloween, a party, even school plays! And when not in use in public, it's a fun dress up costume for playing at home.

Cleopatra was known for her charming beauty. This Halloween, capture a little bit of that famous tradition with a costume fit for an Egyptian queen!

If you're looking for a costume that is perfect for any female, from girl to teen to adult and is fun, interesting and fairly simple, Egyptian Cleopatra costumes are the way to go. Playing Queen of Egypt is fun and original, and easy to do for any age.

Egyptian Queen Cleopatra costumes are simple and fun to put together. First of all, you can buy a elegant and beautiful dress to create the mood. These dresses come in all sizes and a variety of styles. You'll find one to suit you whether you want a sexy, showy look, or a more classic look with the long, flowing robes of a real Egyptian queen.

Once you've got the dress as your base, you're ready to complete the look with Cleopatra costume accessories, and this is the fun part. You will need jewelry and a headpiece in thick gold and jewels. A richly jeweled belt is also a must. Also, the traditional wig with black straight hair and bangs is important if you don't have naturally Cleopatra-like hair. Shoes, of course shouldn't be shoes, but sandals. The most simple, strappy, old style sandals you can find.

Now moving on to the makeup that will give you that truly Egyptian Cleopatra look. Of course the most important thing is the eyeliner. Thick, black liner on both top and bottom of your eye, extending out in a line well past the corner of your eye is the trademark Cleopatra look. And don't forget your skin! You've got to show what the hot Egyptian sun has been doing to your skin! Bronzing powder will do the trick, if your skin is a paler shade.

With Egyptian Cleopatra costumes you're ready to rule the party!
