Didn't know about the bellydancing thing! Raving and all that I know of, and maybe even ballroom dancing, but bellydancing? xD
I personally consider mix of Gothic with bellydance a heresy. Especially when uncivil hordes from East charging towards so-called civilized society, copying their attire is far not the best thing to do.
