But the pretty spangles must go.

'Our Mansab has issued an order that spangles, sequins, cowrie shells and all such ornaments are to be abolished from the wardrobes of Hureidha. Consternation fills every harim. The ladies with sighs are snipping from their new dresses, just finished for the feast, the stars they wear so gracefully in the middle of their backs, swaying as they walk. And the sadness is that we are responsible for the tragedy. It is the sight of our dowdy clothes that inspires dress reform in the heart of the Mansab.' Freya Stark, A Winter in Arabia.

These pretty star spangles are from a sweet star sculpt available at Treasured Cove Sculpts.
