I was inspired by Badie Masabni, the Egyptian belly Dancer.

Egypt’s traditional folklore dance and dress is both fascinating and entertaining, perfectly capturing the country’s rich culture

When it comes to folklore traditional dress, most of the regions dress somewhat similarly, with men often donning galabeyas (long dress-like garments) and women also wearing galabeyas that are more fitted and colorful. Men’s galabeyas are usually loose, plain and found in a range of darker or neutral colors such as beige, brown and navy, whereas women’s galabeyas are more fitted, vibrantly colored and could also consist of various patterns.
