Male costuming discussion

Costumes, etc.

Dear Group,
I designed and made costumes for Aziz many years ago and it was great fun. I don't think its anything new to design for males... or is it?? I mean, for example, in our last two performances I have costumed males for different roles in the show and I have also costumed males as belly dancers, so maybe I am looking at this from a different angle than most??
Regards,

Did you have anything to do with Raffa's costumes?

I blatently stole his basic idea for one of my costumes. Very effective for a male and is still "pretty", as I like it.

Dear Zorba,
I have not had anything to do with Raffa's costuming, but the breastplate with beads is a thing that Azizi had been doing for years and I did do some of those, his later ones, I think, were made in Turkey. I have seen Raffa in this same basic style. I like it, too.
Regards,
A'isha
