I was watching a video clip from one of her old songs Ah W Nos on Youtube and i caught sight of her wearing cute blue coined scarf and a cute Traditional Egyptian white galabiya (except she wears hers pulled up around her thighs while she does her laundry !?!).... You can watch the video here to see what i mean. She looks so cute walking down the road with a basket on her head.
Here is a pic of it - but watch the video above to get the full beauty of it:::
Apparently when this song came out quite a few girls were aching to get their hands on their own personal copy of Nancy's White Galabiya.
Apparently he sold 1000 direct from his shop in Cairo and another 3 million have been sold worldwide!! Hard to believe right?!!?
I love the black version though. its really stunning and i think the sequins stand out more:::
He says :
"The suppliers have run out of sequins because they have all been used to make Nancy gelabiyas! A lot of girls buy it, go home, put it on, take a picture on their mobile phone and send it to me."

Pretty incredible, right? Except i dont think i would be sending my pic to a random shop owner.
Apparently you can walk into shops and read "Buy Nancy's galabiya here". Since i dont have the luxury of walking right into any of those shops here in Australia, i decided to look online.
I found online a German website that sells it (and sells it in different colours such as red, pink and blue, etc).
Here is the Original White Nancy style:
Pale Pink Style::I love the black version though. its really stunning and i think the sequins stand out more:::
i know it could look a bit bellydancer-ish but i still love it! I want a black one! Its so stylin'.
One of my girls in Egypt, Fatma, said she only really wears hers at home. She said she has a Nancy Galabiya (as they are known as) but hers is in red and silver, so i asked her if she would wear it outside - she said she doesnt but some do so its absolutely fine to.. i so would.. i can imagine myself in it now...
So do you love it???
