I am probably at the peak of my BELLA addiction. There is no way I can stop at one custom made. For past year, ebay and bhuz have been my source for BELLA and I pay through my nose to buy second hand used BELLA. Now that I finally got BELLA's attention, I need not go through the agony of losing an auction for a 2nd hand BELLA. My 1st custom made had been a roller-coaster. There are moments when I felt that it might not turn out to be what I want or the costume might disappear into the mail or my costume will never be made or... whatever.
The irony is that my gigs are usually stage-performances in a troupe or duet where school costumes will be the standard uniform. No one really appreciates BELLA and strange enough, the one person who noticed BELLA and complimented it with honesty is WK who is not in anyway related or associated to the bellydance community. His exact words, " This costume is nice, unlike the others, the belt fits so well." Well, I have long sold that BELLA costume.
My 1st experience has been wonderful and I am seriously comtemplating on my 2nd. This time, it is going to be fuschia, preferrably with a straight belt.
