Where can I find belly shirts?

[LaurelLiz]

Hey ladies,
I take bellydancing classes and I'm looking for a top for a recital costume. My friend and I don't want to have to buy one of the very expensive beaded tops, but would rather just find a solid color shirt that shows the belly.

Does anyone know where I could find something like this? Preferably cap sleeves (but sleeveless is ok), v-neck (scoop is ok), and of course it must be belly-baring. I found this photo on a Danskin site, but they only had pink and black. We need blue or purple.

Anyone have any ideas for us? I know its a specific thing to look for but we need help!

Thanks!

I know that on Ebay there are some sellers, locally and internationally that specialize in belly dancing costumes. When I do my search, put in the word choli (blouse that is customarily worn under a sari) I saw this one on auction for $3.99, don't know if there is a money conversion, but that seems quite inexpensive for a beautiful top.

If cholis don't work for you, Sharifwear has some beautiful tie boleros. A little pricey, but they are gorgeous

I used to be a dancer and used to be crazy about spending money on dance clothes, so I suggest discountdancesupply.com and for bright colors I've always liked Dancewear Solutions: Dancewear at Dancewear Solutions
