Halloween, time to dress up...

A dark spooky costume for halloween. It's got eyes and red and green moustacios and an oddly shaped black thing on the tummy....Scarey!

Thanks to anne


The picture is too small, but still the giant fish is recognizable. Thanks to anne


This is being sold as "SEXY Belly Dancer EXOTIC DANCE Halloween Costume", that this is listed as exotic dance costume, is understandable, but sexy? Not really. Belly dance? Nope! And Halloween? I can't see the Halloween-ish thing in this one. But scroll down and see a real belly dance costume for Halloween!

When a Costumes Goes VERY Wrong

Underwear belt again, some pearl necklaces glued to the top, a crotch adornment, and just lots of nakedness

Fluffy the Wonderbra

Here is a very big "what were they thinking" moment. This costume would be allright, if it wasn't for all that fluff:


Wrong Wrong Wrong

My cups runneth over





Badly constructed bra and belt, but the downwards patterns on the bra give it a whole appearance of droopyness







This looks like it was inspired by men's underwear

A Little Collection for Today

Strange belt:



Nothing wrong with a tribal costume, but this is sold as a costume for men and women, isn't that a bit strange?



This thing just doesn't work:

Belly Dance?

What is this thing supposed to be?

Lingerie Bra Disgised as Belly Dance Bra

One very important thing when you make a belly dance bra is to cover the straps so that it looks like an actual belly dance bra. Also here the bra itself hasn't been covered with fabric first. It makes the thing looks cheap.


This one was a find by Klaire

Eve is taking belly dance classes

Is this what belly dance was in the garden of Eden? How wrong is this tribal outfit?!

Eyes....

This thin g is rather expensive... It has eyes and an overload of fringe. The color combination doesn't work either.

A Very "What Were They Thinking" Moment

This one is a flash-back, I have seen it before. It's for sale again, I wonder why? Did the person who bought it not appreciate it????? LOL
Hypnotic bra again.... But not only that, it's cone shaped too, has a big gap between the cups. The rest is just UGLY!!!!

Thanks to Feiruz at http://tribes.tribe.net/uglyfunnycostumes



Return of the Crotchtopus

Is that an octopus on the down there aria, or flames? And what about that single strand of fringe (red arrow)

This lovely example was found by zombiefied

Roses

Mardi grassbeads, tassles and roses all combined. Note the nude color of the bra, is that supposed to look like the breasts are only covered by roses?

A little Collection for Today

The chrochetted bits on the bra have been placed in an odd way, I don't think this will look nice from a distance


Lovely costume, but what are those wooden dangles doing on it?


Cross-eyed boobs, with nipple fringe:

Fluffy

Not too bad, if it wasn't for the mardi grass beads and fluff.

Leopard

This one got a really strange un-matching belt. Made of cheap fake-sequins-fabric and some sparce embellishments and fringe.


The Belly Dancer Bib

You'll never have to worry about spilling baklava on your dance costume again!

This unique item was hunted down by Klaire on http://tribes.tribe.net/uglyfunnycostumes

Fabric Mistake

In fact not much wrong with this one, just for the fabric at the belt, it seems they used non matching fabric:





Thursday, October 16, 2008

Costume?

Being sold as belly dance costume. It's rather a practise outfit, and a bad one too

Checkered Costume


Attack of the Fringe

This one could do with a little bit less fringe. I do like the style of the fringe, but just less please. The bra is kind of bare on top and busy at the bottom. I think this one can be saved. Change the decoration a bit and loose some fringe.

Weird "Belly Dance" Accessories

Some really weird items advertised as belly dance accessories......


Professional Belly Dance Costume?

Well, it must be, if that's what the seller said...
(it even got nipple fringe)

Costume for the Housewife?

This isn't ugly, but it was advertised in such a weird way, it said: "belly dance costumer for the 'housewife-ish' woman". In the description it said: for the woman with a housewife figure! What on earth is that? It sounds kind of insulting LOL


Saturday, October 11, 2008

Again something trying to be a belly dance costume



Friday, October 10, 2008

What's in my Scrap Box?

I still got some golden trim, little bit of sparce fringe, some rhines stones, and oh I forgot: that fabric i used for Carnival last year. What can I do with that?



Polka Dots Again

Another costume with polka dots. And what's up with the silver line around each cup?

Another Design gone Wrong

The wall of fringe again... But if you'd take it off it's totally ok:

Not only in the belly dancing world....

But in the ballroom and latin dance world there are some 'what were they thinking' costumes. Look at this one:




Practise outfit tries to be costume

Again, this is sold as costume. What I don't get is the work that went into the belt, but then the bra was left so bare.


Look it's quite detailed, but unfortunately with cheap material

Costume?

This is being sold as belly dance costume. It's rather a practise outfit, and a bad one too

New Meaning to Hip Circle

You'd think a hip circle is a belly dance movement, no it's not, it's a part of a costume!


Snake Charmer

Why oh why is there a big fat diamonte embellishment right there on the front of the belt that doesn't mach any of the rest of the costume? This costume is called 'snakecharmer', maybe now we understand...


And another attention grabbing costume. What's up with the weird shoulder thingies?

Too Much of Everything

The squares and circles combined is just a bit too much.


Friday, October 3, 2008

Construction Mistake

Look at the bra cups, that sure can't be comfortable. And those weid straps in the middle, they are probably needed for this construction. The cups are also miles apart (maybe space for 3rd boob?)

Thursday, October 2, 2008

Good design gone wrong


Actually, there is not much wrong with this one, it's just that the skirt is too much for it (and a bit skimpy). With a different skirt it would look good.


Wednesday, October 1, 2008

Good Idea Gone Wrong

This kind of fabric can work out well of course, if it's nicely made, but look, here 2 patches of fabric have just been put badly on the cups, some beads are placed on top of the cups and the fringe is sewn on in an ugly way.


Not only belly dance costumes turn out to be...

Plain weird and ugly. It also happens in other dance sectors. For example, this is a latin dance dress. Look at the shape of the bra, who would fit that? And the skirt looks strange too
