Not only a pretty picture, but if you look at her thigh, you see she has some sort of sheer/net something going on underneath her skirt.  I’ve seen a few other vintage costumes that also include the netting, and I think it’s a really unique look. I can’t find a picture of it in motion, but I imagine it could be an interesting way for that ‘exposing lots of skin but not really sort of look”</p> </blockquote> <p>I think they’re probably flesh-toned fishnets.

Years later, Gamal would meet the founder of modern Oriental dance, Badia Masabni, who invited Gamal to join her dance company. It was also Masabni who gave her the stage name, Samia Gamal. </p> <p>As Gamal’s stardom and popularity rose, she became a respected and well-known dancer who incorporated techniques from both ballet and Latin dance into her performances. She was also the first woman to perform on stage wearing high heels.</p> <p>During her movie career, she starred in many films alongside popular Egyptian actor Farid Al Attrach. Not only did they play each other’s love interests on screen, but were also lovers in real life. Unfortunately, due to Farid Al Attrach’s status and personal beliefs, he and Gamal never married.</p> <p>Samia Gamal would later move to the US, where she gained notable popularity and also married the so-called “Texas Millionaire”, Shepherd King III. The marriage was shortlived and she later married her second husband, Egyptian actor Roshdy Abaza.</p> <p>Samia Gamal starred in over 50 films and continued dancing well into her 40s. On December 1, 1994, at the age of 70, Samia Gamal passed away in Egypt.</p> <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samia_Gamal">source</a></p> </blockquote> </blockquote>http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31600192334http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31600192334Sat, 15 Sep 2012 13:19:53 -0500belly dancevintageSamia Gamalcostume<iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_31590562030" src="http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31590562030/audio_player_iframe/paisleyshimmy/tumblr_lpya92qA5h1qcevl5?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2Fpaisleyshimmy%2F31590562030%2Ftumblr_lpya92qA5h1qcevl5" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://fuckyeaholdiesmusic.tumblr.com/post/8937555174/walk-like-an-egyptian-the-bangles-released-in">fuckyeaholdiesmusic</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Walk Like An Egyptian | The Bangles<br/><em>Released in 1986</em></p> </blockquote>http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31590562030http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31590562030Sat, 15 Sep 2012 10:36:17 -0500musicWalk Like an EgyptianThe Bangles1986<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9o94zelT61rbmfbro1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Stacey Lizette</p>http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31583127942http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31583127942Sat, 15 Sep 2012 08:00:48 -0500belly dancecostumeStacey Lizette<iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_31578835147" src="http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31578835147/audio_player_iframe/paisleyshimmy/tumblr_m9v4btqTjs1r4k8ny?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2Fpaisleyshimmy%2F31578835147%2Ftumblr_m9v4btqTjs1r4k8ny" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://45andsingle.tumblr.com/post/30921406771">45andsingle</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>DIANA ROSS - Love Hangover</strong></p> <p>45 rpm single</p> </blockquote>http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31578835147http://paisleyshimmy.tumblr.com/post/31578835147Sat, 15 Sep 2012 05:17:29 -0500Diana RossLove Hangovermusicvintage1976<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7mddfuzGI1rxv35uo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://vintagebellydance.tumblr.com/post/27836762408/just-some-oldschool-bellydance-photos-and-i-would">vintagebellydance</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Just some oldschool bellydance photos, and I would say this is definitely from the seventies.
