Harem Nights Belly Dancer Womens Costume Deluxe

Harem Nights Belly Dancer Womens Costume Deluxe

This sultry, sexy Bellydancer Costume evokes our most romantic perceptions of the mid-East...tales about duplicitous genies, beguiling Harem Dancers, storytelling Queens, Genies, and clever thieves. The 1001 Nights or simply, Arabian Nights collection of Middle Eastern folklore stories has fascinated Western audiences since Sir Richard Francis Burton's 1885 English translation. Originating as a folk dance among both females and males in parts of Egypt and Arabia, Bellydance has come to be influenced by the dances of North Africans, the Roma Gypsy people of Turkey, and more. The West has been captivated with the image of a sensuous, graceful Bellydancer since star performers like Little Egypt and the Gamal Twins toured world-famous cabarets in the 1940's and 1950's. The first-ever public Bellydance classes became trends in North America, Europe, and Australia during the 1960's and 1970's, and since then Bellydance in both the mid-East and West has been considered a dance of sensuality, liberation, and connecting to ancestral roots. Dance is a renowned remedy for stress, depression, and insecurity - feel like the powerful, hip-shaking goddess you can be with this sultry Bellydancer outfit!
