Getting and staying cool in the desert regions requires light fabrics that are breathable as well as rugged. My signature Tribal Essentials Collection is made almost exclusively of cotton gauze perfectly suited for the "dry heat" as well as the monsoon season humidity. I am known throughout the belly dance, Ren Faire and Steampunk venues as Lady Faie and have designed a Bohemian collection of dresses, rompers, top, pants and skirts that are comfortable, lightweight and versatile for nearly any venue. The collection is 100% dyeable and is completely sewn and hand dyed by me in over 100 colors and combinations for endless fun as wearable art.
