What should I wear for a belly dancing class?


I am taking a belly dancing class with my daughter. We both need modest ideas for what to wear. We need can’t show our navels and it needs to have sleeves. Also, I’m vertically challenged and fluffy (ie fat) I need something that moves but I won’t look too funny in.

Hi I’m Deborah, I have been bellydancing for 5 yrs! What I recommend is any type of yoga pants or sweat pants that are loose and not form fitting. Really any kind of stretchy pants (not shorts and no jeans) you can also wear a really long stretching skirt! It all depends on what you like :) As far as a shirt once again anything stretchy! It can be a cute t-shirt, it can be a long sleeve shirt, it can be anything that you feel comfortable moving in! Another thing is a lot of bellydancers will wear a tank top and a gypsy top or choli top (you can look it up). which has sleeves on it! And then one of the most important parts is the hip scarf! It can be a knit scarf or a scarf covered in coins and beads. Look up bellydance hip scarf, you should see it there. As far as hair, it can be up or down, it doesn’t matter.
