Hairband harem dancer oriental

The oriental belly dancer headband is an open, gold-coloured band with three dangling half-moons and two stars, worn low across the forehead. An openwork border of small teardrop shapes runs along the top, making the band look like a narrow crown from the front. The headpiece is designed for women and makes a belly dancer or Arabian Nights outfit instantly recognisable at carnival or an oriental-themed party.

Gold, crescent moons and stars on the headband

• The band and all the pendants are gold-coloured.
• The material is 95% steel and 5% PMMA.
• Three half-moons hang from rings along the lower edge, each with a star in the centre and a row of small stars along the bottom.
• Two separate, smooth stars hang between the half-moons.
• The band is not closed: the ends are open, like a diadem.
• This headband is designed for women.

How does a belly dancing headband differ from a regular tiara?

A belly dancing headband hangs across the front of the head, while a tiara sits upright on top of the hair. With this band, the crescent moons and stars fall just above your eyebrows, so the gold is visible around your face rather than above it. Choose it if you want the jewellery to stand out immediately when someone looks at you. The half-moon with stars is part of the fairytale image of Arabian Nights, in which dancers in silk and gold perform at court.

A complete belly dancing look around the gold headband

Start with wide harem trousers or a skirt in a bright colour such as fuchsia or turquoise, and pair it with a short top that leaves the waist bare. A sheer veil over the shoulders and gold bracelets or a necklace that match the colour of the pendants complete the look. Wear your hair loose or in waves so that the band remains clearly visible. Dark eye makeup and red lipstick complete the belly dancing costume. Please note: these clothing items and accessories are not included with the headband and must be purchased separately.
