Not exactly a belly dancer dress, but dresses that cost more than a house exist in RL
Um, you know, the thing is, every time anything any good is created by a RL fashion designer, within a matter of hours somewhere in Hong Kong there is already a copy of it, and before the week is out similar garments from no name designers that lack the finesse and super fine finish of the designer original appear in the Wallmarts and Targets of the world.

To put this in game context, why would other weavers not make a similar cut garment from cheaper materials? There could easily be a slightlydifferent version of this that lacks gemstones or detail on the lace or whatever, but is easier to make. The eternal bonding gowns demonstrate clearly that the same garment can have multiple levels of detail, so why not do that here and leth those that want the ultimate and others make use of the more available, but not quite so fine, alternate version.
