Great costumes! I want to make a belt similar to the red one. Any chance you could let me know how you make the long bits that dangle from it? Hope you're still making costumes and accessories - you're very talented!
call it tribal fusion and no one will get on your back about a choli or anything like that ^_^
plus in tribal fusion dance more options are available to one for the moves! Unfortunately for me.. no one teaches it here.. so I settle for the teacher I found of a different style of the dance but i don't mind too much, i still dance tribal fusion on my own XD
looks like you are inspiring a lot of people. You obviously have a gift for making these costumes and really should keep doing it. could you please please if you havnt already please make a tutorial on how to make these in fact, if you could please make as many as possible I will definately watch and learn from all of them!
I was wondering. I love to bellydance and I'm teaching myself tribal, but I have a mdoesty issue, both me and my boyriend dislike em exposing skin, so I was wondering... could a choli with a body stocking underneath be worn with a tribal costume?
BTW, I LOVE these costumes, great job, Ms. Pattasy!! ^^
@LauralyricXx, many tribal and other types of belly dancers do not wear choli tops. That's why it's referred to as fusion dance - because many styles are fused into one art form. When you put restrictions on an art form, it ceases to be art. Perhaps you need to educate yourself more about the art of belly dancing before you criticize others.
@pattasy You're costumes are amazing! I'm apart of a belly dance group here in Arkansas. We do a little bit of everything. Each member has their own unique style. I, for one, love Gypsy and Tribal Fusion. I'm working on a tribal belt right now! Wish me luck as I'm not a crafty person. At all. lol
@LauralyricXx I'm not really sure what ATS is, but i didn't want to wear a choli. It was like 100 degrees outside and i was afraid to get armpit sweat rings :D. I do want to make some long sheer arm covers though.
@pattasy Tribal isn't only ATS. Rachel Brice never wears a choli. It's a great costume. Would love to have that type of talent so I could stop paying $300 plus for mine. PS... The asian coins are a nice touch. It makes the pieces interesting.
omg i luv everythign im trying to make myself a costume...can u send sum pictures with details of everythign plz. aacesories hair piece top bottoms etc..plz????will u so i can give u my emial plz. thansk alot :)
Very awesome costumes. I would suggest if you're going for tribal to add in a choli over the coin bra. But very awesome. I drooled over the headpieces. :3
@pattasy Yeah, I was looking at how you made them. Great Idea! I've been trying to get it to stay there for awhile....not I just need to find somewhere that sells those types of headbands lol Thanks for the idea :)
I never believe it when someone says they 'can't bellydance'. You have creativity and energy enough to make beautiful costumes so why can't you take some classes... or get some instructional DVD's and get the moves down!
On the other had... maybe you are happy creating beautiful costumes and that is where your heart lies. As long as you are having fun and staying happy with what you do... thats all that matters :)
Time isn't much of a problem. Besides, isn't a little bit of time worth learning something new? If you never roam, you'll never see what can be in this world. I'll stop now, I'm starting to sound like a Mary Poppins song. :P
Well when you're in high school and you already spend 5 hours per day in school, then 2 hours working, hell even on saturdays you work it is a problem. When you have high chances of harassment when you go back to home after 6 pm it is a problem. :s
:) its actually very easy. cut the shoulder straps off a bra and add your own. and then just stick some frilly froofroo stuff on a thick plain bra and run it through the sewing machine. :D i can make them in about 30min.
If I were you, I'd try to take a real bellydance class if one is available in your area. There are some good videos out there, but a video can't correct your form if you're doing it wrong. Also, there tends to be a certain amount of extra motivation when you know you've spent the money for the class and people will know if you skip. ;-)
i never learned to dance. lol! But seriously if the desire is there, sewing is pretty easy. Most of the things i make uses a simple straight stich with a sewing machine, no fancy stuff.
XD I hardly use patterns. (i don't know how) i used a black bra and stuck a bunch of stuff on it, then i cut the straps off and added my own. The dress is just two half circles sewn together. If i understood patterns, i'd be making alot more stuff! :)
Hah'zah! Well done! ...seriously! My wife's in a tribe so I've seen the good and the bad; you've done well! Now...come to the Colorado RenFest and join us in a dance! MizmarMadness-dot-com [doom doom tek ka tek!]
oh wow what a lovely site i can draw some nice inspiration there :) Colorado is a bit far, though. thanks for the compliments, means alot coming from someone in a troupe! thank you!
i can dance, somewhat, XD! Bellydancing takes alot of muscle isolation training to learn. It's hard to learn. i still can't do a stomach roll. lol! thank you for the compliments, Reknbal. :D
