About
the Boutique
Lunatic Fringe opening in September,
2002 at its current location and was remodeled after a devastating
fire early in 2004. Over the past several years, Paloma
has developed the store not only into an oasis for the belly dance
shopper, but also as a hub for dance activity in the Bay Area
dance scene.
Offering
an alternative to risky internet shopping or the overwhelming
pace of a dance festival, Lunatic Fringe is available during
evening and weekend business hours and by appointment for dancers
with busy schedules. Here at our boutique you can try on costumes
in a spacious dressing room. Stop by and explore the wide selection
of jewelry and accessories. From unique decorative items to essential
products every dancer needs, there is an abundance of items available
to touch, feel, and experience. [Interior photo of shop]
Lunatic
Fringe is filled with treasures to suit the tastes of the
dancer lifestyle. From imported Egyptian beaded two-piece bedlah
sets to flowing Gypsy skirts and ornate Tribal Jewelry, Paloma
hand selects products from major dance manufacturers like Star
Styled and Leo's, respected importers such as India Arts and Pharoah's
Treasures, American manufacturers like Saroyan Mastercrafts as
well as talented local artisans and designers such as Med'Devi
Ink by Tempest.
The
costumes Paloma selects are chosen with good design and
excellent construction in mind in a variety of sizes and styles.
From full costumes to completer pieces, student grade to professional
quality, all are budget friendly, yet elegant. Unique one-of-a-kind
costume creations and gently used consignment pieces mingle with
dance basics such as chiffon skirts and harem pants offering a
luscious selection of dancewear to try on.
