Hi all!

We talked in a previous video about what it takes to open a belly dance store whether locally or online. One way to provide a supply for your store is to sell your own designs as a costume designer. This is what our topic of discussion is today in this video.

So let's see how you could make it professionally as a costume designer .

Also, please see some amazing resources for the costume designers.
