Those were the days! When dancers wore costumes with lots of fabric and fringe to fill up the stage. Beautiful visuals.

Norma, thanks for posting! I feel like I've discovered a new treasure. This also makes me want to make some capes with arm holes like these and revive this costume/prop trend.

I agree. While I enjoy Modren style dance. I miss this style of the dance. You don't see it as much anymore. At least not in my area. It is either Modren Egyptian or Tribal Fusion.

Greetings from Delaware.
