Not so odd, my DD is wearing a Fire Engine red crushed velvet Belly Dance
gown as well.
One bare shoulder, slightly ruched side seam on the 'bare' side of the gown,
slightly flared skirt that is slit to the thigh. One shoulder length
gauntlet. I am in the process of figuring out where the multitudes of gold
bead/sequin appliques will be placed. :0)

>So, what's yourdressmaker's dummy wearing today?
I might take the prize for oddest: a commissioned stretch bellydance dress
of holographic copper foil fused to spandex -- it looks like liquid metal.
It's a 40's-inspired dress, with a low-cut twisted bodice, slashed flared
short sleeves open to the shoulder, a tummy-revealing panel of power net
and a close-fitting 8-panel trumpet skirt with lots of flare at the bottom.
It's coming along very well; with all the added rhinestones, sequin trim
and Egyptian glass fringe, though, there's so much light coming off the
dress that it gives me a headache if I work on it too long...
