Custom Costumes by Basimah Dalal

 
 
 
I've made several of these costumes for my fellow Raqs el Sehr Shamal troupe sisters. Always fun! Each one is a little different from the last.
 
This is a 4-way stretch lycra velvet one-of-a-kind costume that I created. Made of very soft micro zebra print, silver trim around the bodice, and silver lace at the hem of the skirt. Best part of this costume is that it does not wrinkle easily- so it's perfect for traveling to distant shows in a suitcase. Pair this up with a black coin belt, or a silver beaded belt and your costume is complete!
 
 
 
This was the first performance costume I made. Lots of fun and sparkles!
