What Is MissBellyDance?
Updated
MissBellyDance (missbellydance.com) is an online belly dance costume store. It sells one-of-a-kind and ready-made belly dance costumes, tops, hip scarves, harem pants, skirts, and veils, and it positions itself as offering a large selection of belly dance wear with direct online purchase. It suits dancers and hobbyists shopping for performance, practice, or Halloween looks — and anyone who wants costume pieces rather than a single full outfit.
What the site sells
The catalog is organized around costume components and sets, so you can build a look piece by piece or buy a coordinated set.
- Costume sets — grouped listings for complete looks
- Tops — coin tops, tie tops, wrap-around tops, chiffon tops, sequin bras
- Bottoms — harem pants, cotton and chiffon skirts
- Hip scarves — including multi-row chiffon styles
- Veils and accessories — listed alongside the main costume categories
The homepage also runs a "Find Your Perfect Halloween Look" section, which frames the same inventory (coin tops, hip scarves, harem pants, skirts, veils) as Halloween costume material. So the store serves both dance use and costume-party use from one catalog.
How pricing and sales work
Prices are shown per item, and the site runs a Flash Sale section with marked-down regular and sale prices. Examples from the listing pages:
| Item | Regular price | Sale price | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belly Dance 25 yrd Cotton Skirt | $79.99 | $44.99 | $35.00 |
| Belly Dance Chiffon Fluted Sleeve Top (ERASICA) | $34.99 | $13.99 | $21.00 |
| Belly Dance Chiffon Full Circular Skirt | $44.99 | $19.99 | $25.00 |
| Belly Dance Chiffon Multi-Row Hip Scarf (HIBANI FLOURISH) | $31.99 | $19.99 | $12.00 |
| Belly Dance Adjustable Sequins Bra (Canili Rimba) | — | $29.99 | — |
| Belly Dance Black & White Wrap-Around Top (BETHANY'S TOP) | $19.99 | $9.99 | $10.00 |
| Belly Dance Chiffon Tie Top (CLUB NIGHT / QUEEN OF COINS) | $14.99 | $7.99 | $7.00 |
Two things worth noting before you buy:
- Sale items are marked "ALL SALES FINAL." That label appears on the discounted cotton skirt listing, so treat sale purchases as non-returnable unless the product page says otherwise.
- Shipping is stated as "Ships within 24 business hours" on at least the skirt listing. Confirm this per item, since it may not apply to every product.
Sizing: measure, don't trust the number
The site's own sizing guidance is blunt: "Sizes mean nothing!! One manufacturer's size 8 is another one's 12." Instead of picking your usual size, it tells you to measure and match against the size charts for costumes, tops, and pants.
The measurements it asks for:
- Around rib cage / under bust
- Upper hip / top of belt
- Lower hip — 4" below the top of the belt
- Skirt or pants length — upper hip to the bottom of the garment
How to take them, per the site: use a cloth tape measure and a full-length mirror, measure undressed or in lightweight clothes, pull the tape snug but not tight, keep arms at your side, stand straight, and have a friend measure for the best result.
There is also an international shoe size chart (US/Canada, Australia, Europe, Mexico, Japan, UK) if you're buying footwear.
A concrete example of why this matters: the cotton skirt listing gives a 37" length and an elastic waist that stretches from 26" to 50". That range covers a lot of bodies, but the length is fixed — so the number to check against your own measurement is the 37", not the waist.
Practical details to check per item
- Color options vary by product. The cotton skirt, for instance, lists 5 available colors. Check the specific listing rather than assuming a full color range.
- Product codes help with reordering. Listings carry codes such as SKC121--1, useful if you want to find the same item again.
- Customer reviews exist as a homepage section, and each product page has an "Ask a question" form (name, email, message) if you need clarification before ordering.
Who it's for
MissBellyDance fits you if you are:
- A belly dancer or student buying practice or performance wear
- Someone assembling a Halloween or costume-party look from dance pieces
- A shopper who wants individual components (a top here, a hip scarf there) rather than a single packaged costume
- Comfortable ordering online and measuring yourself instead of relying on standard sizes
It's less suited if you need in-person fitting, easy returns on discounted items, or a guarantee that a specific color and size combination is in stock — those depend on the individual listing.
