Centuries ago belly dancing in the Middle East was a means to worship the Arabian goddess and was performed by women for women. But today, the dance has lost its social context and has remained just a form of performing arts.
The costume
The costume which is worn by the dancers is called as the ‘bedlah’, which consists of a bejewelled bra-like blouse, a belt, and a skirt or harem pants. The suit is decorated with sequins, crystals, coins and are also richly embroidered. The music is mostly saidi (cheerful) or Masmoudi kabir (serious) and the movements are very vibrant and fluid.

Belly-dancing in other parts of the world
Apart from the Middle East, the art of belly dancing is also very popular in the rest of the world. In the nineteenth century, this dance propagated to Australia, United Kingdom and other parts of North Africa. Most noted among the foreign dancers were Amar Gamal, Ariellah Aflalo, Nadia Gamal, Nejla Ates, Rachel Brice and also the sensational Shakira.
