Dancing The Samba
Feathered headdresses, glittery armlettes, calf accessories, sequined back pieces, bright colored boas and sexy high heels are a staple in every samba dancer’s wardrobe. Of course what is seen on these dancers on the floats doesn’t necessarily mean this is what will be seen on the dance floor. No, samba costumes used in ballroom dancing are less revealing and are more functional in nature. When dancing the samba, women usually dress up in a bra top and a skirt, or a sexy dress. Remember, even if they are not as skimpy as those seen in the street carnivals of Brazil, it doesn’t mean they should be any less sexy. Sexy samba costumes for women are characterized by shimmer, glitter and vibrant colors.
