New Troupe Costumes!

[Maya Raschad]

Here is our new troupe costume! Everybody worked on their own bra and belt, took some of them more than 6 months, but worth it, I think. They look good on a stage.
Here are also two of my designs. Interested to know what you think?

 

[Moon]

Great! I like the green one best.

 

[Alaya]

Wonderfull. It looks amezing, I like the black one.

 

[Marisha25]

They look so lovely! I really like the green one on the right in the first picture.

 

[Shanazel]

Classic and very pretty! You all look beautiful.

 

[Amulya]

Looks like the hard work paid off very well! Looks great!

 

[Sara]

Wow! They're brilliant! Well done! Very vibrant.

 

[belly taz]

very nice...did you do the work on the skirts to

 

[Yshka]

The troupe costumes look amazing!! I like the black design but the green one is my fave. Belt shape looks so beautiful for people with hips , great!

 

[Viv]

Very nice!!! All the hard works shows in how beautiful all the costumes are!

 

[Demelza]

wow !! I think every single one of them is gorgeous !! Well done to all of you for your individual work. I 've seen some troups who make their own costumes, and they all look so different, but I like it when they are more or less the same style but in different colours.......when your dancing the audience can appreciate the dancing instead of focusing on just one costume (if that makes sense). Well done xxx. PS. which one are you ?

 

[TribalDancer]

So beautiful and professional looking. You all should be proud!

I'm in purple ,but the picture is so dark that end! Oh,by the way, no, I did not make the sequinned skirts. I found them at http://www.craftindia.com and they were the inspiration for the bra and belts.
The folksy costume with the tassel belts, I did make all of them, including the tassel belts and headrolls.

I thought it would be nice to try an ALL silver costume for myself, for a change. It turns out it's really versatile, lots of skirts go with it. It didn't take long, all sequins and paillettes ,no beading.
I find that sequin only costumes look great on a stage, but not so great close up, so they are perfect for troupe. I save the long hard job of beading for individual costumes, for solos and restaurant work,or anywhere you will be close to your audience.
Sorry, I get so enthusiastic about making costumes! (Can't help rambling!)
