Melodia Designs

We’re beyond proud and honored to announce that the one and only, Melodia Designs, founded by the legendary Melodia Medley, will be joining us as a sponsor and vendor at Rhaqsira Belly Dance Fest.

You’ll have the chance to meet this fashion design goddess in person and shop directly from the #1 Fusion Belly Dance Brand. Translation: meet your icon and skip the shipping—win-win!

If you haven’t already, start exploring her latest collection at www.MelodiaDesigns.com.

Melodia Medley turned a childhood love of dress-up and self-expression into a soulful, slow fashion brand rooted in movement and sustainability. Inspired by her early experiments with transforming her grandmother’s nightgowns, Melodia gained hands-on experience with an indie clothing brand before launching her own line in 2000.

After falling in love with Fusion Belly Dance, she began designing performance costumes, eventually touring with the Bellydance Superstars while selling her creations on the road. Later, yoga inspired her to design versatile, natural fiber pieces for dance, movement, and everyday life.

Today, Melodia Designs remains a small-batch, ethically made brand based in San Diego, known for its thoughtful, community-rooted approach and timeless fusion of fashion and function.
