Cocktail party dress and bellydance outfit in one...

This gem was found by Shawna:

Targets!

"Apart from the extremely awkward construction of the bra and the obviously poor quality of the materials used (especially the chiffon in the skirt), who wants a costume with icy cold purple nipples drawn on it and a big cold purple circle on your crotch? It's like a target, people would feel compelled to throw things at it while you're dancing."

Remember the Bouillabaise Troupe?

Couple of years ago someone on Bhuz invented the Bouillabaise Troupe after so many seafood themed costumes were posted in the UBDC thread. The Bouillabaise troupe got a new member today. But first meet the old members:

Meet Star of the Sea and her twin sister:

And Lobster Woman:

And now a big applause for our newest member, Squid Girl:

Mismatched with a Faux-Belt

"Shouldn't the top and skirt remotely match? Also, why design a belt right onto the skirt? Could this be the missing link between the belt+skirt combinations and just the decorated skirts? "

Thanks to Klaire

Asymetric

I'm not sure if this bra is puking or crying, or maybe just a case of "my cup runneth over"?

Here We Go Again...

"This fetching pink and white number has sad weepy eyes on the breasts and a lovely lap lotus on its oddly high waisted skirt." anne

The smiley makes it even better...

"I don't even know what to write. I think we need to blame the fabric-maker for this one"

Snakes, or What?

What did the designer have in mind? Snakes, noodles, maggots? Or is it puke?

One of my Favorites Ever

I think this one is one one of my most favorite 'what were they thinking' costumes ever. It doesn't need to be explained:

Long Bra Strap Syndrome and...

At least this bra is modest: it's eyes are lowered...

Feathers!

Silly picture by Klaire. I love it!

Big Target

"This is a shop window in Instanbul. Even though the picture is a little small, I still think the giant golden pine cone on the crotch (or is that a beaver tail? which would lead to all kinds of off color remarks) is still fairly visible. Nothing like a huge embelishment RIGHT THERE"

From the Makers of "Mom Jeans"

"I've heard of jeans with a really tall waist called "mom jeans" before, and this costume reminded me of that"

Floating Bra and Gummy Bears

Captain America Strikes Again

Meet Patches, the Wonderbra

This is another one from the vault, it never ceases to amaze me in it's simplicity:

Tribal?

"This is being sold as an egyptian orental tribal fusion belly dance bustle silver leather hip belt train. It's all that and more...it's fugly. Don't say I didn't warn you" anne

Droopy and Scaly

It looks like it got scales, maybe this is a mermaid costume. It looks like something went wrong under water, that droopy bra!

Have we seen this before?

Again one of those mistakes that's easy to fix, but what where they thinking in the first place!?

Star Dot

No glitterdot this time but star dot :-) I think this one explains itself

I ♥ belly dance costumes

We just got the thing for you! The choice of bra hearts or a heart on the belt:

Or both?

Would you pay one thousand dollars to have little worms squirm on your belly while you dance?

UBC Showdown Part 4

This week’s competitors will square up toe-to-toe… Um, I mean, eye-to… that other “eye.” Feiruz’s Eye Claudius will attempt to stare down the champion, Amulya’s Mock Peacock!

(editors coment: I'd like to rename the one on the right as Eye Candy...)

The “Eyes” have it, and Eye Claudius won the Showdown last week. This week, Super Straps steps up to the challenge. Will it be all fun and games until someone loses an eye? (Eye Claudius was shared by Feiruz and Super Straps was found by Sandra.)

Feiruz’s Eye Claudius is back for another week! The challenger is Amulya’s Alien Attack. Keep an eye out for this week’s showdown, because it’s going to be out of this world! You can still vote (on tribe)

New Look for this Blog

I'm experimenting with a new look. Feedback always welcome (maybe it's a 'what was she thinking?' moment hehe)
I still need a banner and maybe that background is a bit too much. Got to work on that too.

Turkish Airport Special

Got this term from Bhuz, it describes a costume mostly worn by Suzy Nippletassles (someone who hires themselves out often for hummus or schwarma as a dancer with little or no training under their belt) This will of course evoke the wrath of the 3am Zill Brigade (an angry mob of dancers who will show up at 3am under the windows of offenders and play finger cymbals loudly/badly)
