Tribal Dance Wear

This is one of several pieces I have done for belly dancing. I patterned and stitched the top from fake leather and used heavy black rain coat clips to close it in the front. The pants are also and original design. I made the pants pattern in both a plain black knit for the underneath and a large fishnet knit to go over the top. The belt is made from some uposterly trim that I dyed and stitched and braided to created the desired texture. I then trimmed the belt with copper coins and bells.
