Plastic Fantastic
This costume comes with a plastic skirt! The bra has odd bits and pieces and the back straps are uncovered white elastic. The belt of course had to have a butterfly.
Leopard
This one looks more like a cut-up bathing suit. I think the bit in the middle does that, maybe without that it might look better
Bella?
I'm not sure, this is being sold as Bella, but it doesn't look like a Bella to me, what do you think?
Designer Costume?
We had a yellow face veil yesterday, I found just the right costume to go with that:
Of course designer costumes have uncovered lingerie bra's with embellishments around the cups to make them stand out more.
Face Veil
It's called: "Belly Dance Veil Hand-made Sequins Voile Yellow Wrap", and of course you can count on me reading that like "Belly Dance Veil Hand-made Sequins Voile Yellow CRAP".
But of course every belly dancer needs one of these:

Barfing Flowers?
I'm not really sure if those are flowers, but again, the bra straps are unfinished and this is sold as professional costume
Mardi Gras Beads and Stuff
It's a pity this picture doesn't show up better: because this one is a gem!
Is Granny Missing a Carpet?
This costume is really odd, the bra and belt don't match, but the skirt? What is that?
Bra
At fist when I saw this I thought: that's not bad. Only later I noticed they had forgotten to do something proper with the back and shoulder straps...
Butterfly
Butterflies are very popular at the moment. This bra isn't too bad, but the skirt has shapes that 'puke' strands of beads:
Pink
This is one of those cheaply 'made in China' costumes. The bra straps have been left uncovered and the sequins have been put on in an odd way (in the way I did my first belly dance costume *cringe*)
Probably for a beginner it's all right, but this is sold as professional costume

Uhm
I really have no words for this one, this is one of the biggest What Were They Thinking moments:
Have you recovered from the shock? Take a moment to take it all in, the delicate details are amazing...
But wait.... there is more, you get this for free:
I love this the best, it's so thoughtful: extra beads 'n stuff for repair:
Stripe
The nude bra with this purple costume is strange, but what's up with that strip of fabric that goes over the tummy?
Ouch, My Eyes!
Of course this might look totally different on a dancer. But I'm not a fan of those gold beads (and the yellow
Wall of Fringe
Not only is the fringe huge, the embroidery is done too roughly and big. A split in the middle of the skirt is not that nice and the bra has a trim around each cup.
What Are These?
This bugs me so much: an otherwise pretty costume with very strange embellishments. What are those? Flying camera lenses?
1001 Dalmatians
Well this one might have originality, but that black and white fabric doesn't work. Whish the designer used blue satin or somthing, that would have been very beautiful.
It Has a Face
And it's grumpy:
And it's nice to know it's not finished, where is the lining? Seems like the bra hasn't been covered with material on the outside either.
I really love the detail on this picture, to see that thread is coming out of the trims:
Birds
Sometimes designers don't know what kind of embellishments to put on a costume. In this case they are birds, I guess, or blobs?
