This wedding party was held in a large diwan filled with cushions A relative of the bride walked by a group of us "foreign women." Not too surprisingly, she had an enormous amount of gold. One necklace alone held a round disk the size of mini-CD!
The relative, I'll call her Fatima for fun, had a lot of hip movement and she appeared to have a lot of other enhancements for the more than full-bodied look. No Barbie for sure, but she was the popular, young third wife, being all of 18 years of age according to her relatives, of a leading businessman and sheikh.
The name Fatima quickly got replaced with "Boo Peep Wanna-Be." Aside from her precious tastes in 21 plus karat gold gaudy (even if expensive) jewelry, she decided to wear a bright pink ante-bellum gown. The hoops were endless and also bent. As she walked by us, Boo Peep's hoop swun upwards revealing her decision to forego underwear. A very icky wedding experience!
