Adira: Dancer and Costumer

An accomplished seamstress for over 30 years, Adira has tackled challenging projects such as her own prom and wedding dresses. Her costuming expertise began to flourish in 1977, when she began creating Halloween and other masquerade costumes.

As Adira’s love of all forms of dance expanded, so did her dance costume designs, from Square Dance apparel to her most recent passion for Oriental Dance. Adira is known for unique and sometimes quite progressive designs.

Adira Dance and Costume specializes in dance costumes and unique sub-culture attire. Dance costumes include belly dance, square dance, flamenco, Bollywood, and salsa. Elizabethan and Victorian attire for Renaissance and Dickens Faires, and Steampunk. Bohemian styles and distinctive dress for Burning Man and Raves.

Adira sells costumes of her own design and of other designers on her web site and at her retail store in San Jose, California.
