Cecilia has been designing and sewing her own clothes since she was in High School.  When she became a belly dancer in 1994, the creation of the costumes quickly became an integral part of her artistic voice as a dancer.   Always performing in costumes she designed and created herself, Cecilia quickly developed a reputation not only as an exceptional dancer but as an excitingly original costume designer.  She began to make custom costumes for other dancer, under the name "StarBelly Creations" in 2002.  She hopes to make some of her casual wear designs available soon, as well.
