Description

http://www.costumez.org/belly-dancer-costume/ - What we know today as the typical belly dance costume is influenced by the glamour of Hollywood on the folkloric ethnic outfits of the Middle East. The beginning of the use of a decorated bra, embellished hip belt and bare midriff, originated from the influence of vaudeville performers such as Mata Hari - who created her costume from Victorian Orientalist pictures of "harem girls".
