Christian Dior: inspired by belly dancers?

These styles from Christian Dior's resort collection in 2008 and 2008 appear to be inspired by belly dancers.  Lots of glitter and jewels, flowy fabrics.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

I LOVE this dancer!

These pictures are of Zoe Jakes, from her MySpace page. I jsut discovered this belly dancer on You Tube and she is just fascinating. Her style is beautiful, but a bit spooky. At times she moves live a zombie or something out of a horror movie. And check out these costumes!!! Everything she wears is totally awaesome and original. She dances with several well-known groups, including Bellydance Superstars and The Indigo. I highly recommend that you check her out.

e K clothing has great dance clothes reasonably priced!

A few weeks ago I started taking belly dancing lessons and I am becoming quite addicted. Its also a good excuse to buy myself some cute dance clothes. The girls in my group wear latin dance pants to practice in, so I had to get some also. I discovered this great store on the internet at http://www.ekclothing.com/. They are located in Las Angelos and have cute clothing and shoes at very reasonable prices. The latin dance pants were between $30-$40, whereas other websites had similar pants for about $70. I recommend that you check out this store whether you are a dancer, or just want to look like one!
