the 5 keys to wearing Flamenco dress for the Summer Fairs

If in Andalusia we are famous for something, it is for our celebrations full of tradition, joy and colour. And although you can find them all year round, today we focus on all those fairs that take place in summer.

An example of this is the well-known Feria de Málaga, which takes place in August, as well as the Feria de Almería, the Feria de Linares, the Feria de Palma del Río and the Feria de San Bartolomé, among many others.


That's why today we bring you the 5 keys to wear Flamenco in summer:

1- More Creativity

Although there are many women who prefer to wear the classic flamenco dress, the truth is that the night always gives more room to experiment and be more creative with our outfit.

We have room to play with bolder patterns or combinations:

An occasion to be more daring and play with the infinite possibilities that flamenco fashion offers us.

Here are some ideas for fabrics that will allow you to create unique outfits, such as with transparencies and details of devoured fabrics:

ORCERA. Referencia: 03931/01-0006. Flocked chiffon fabric (devoured).

2- Fresher Fabrics

Another aspect to take into account is the coolness of the fabric. For our comfort, it is important to choose fabrics that help us fight the heat.

Printed viscose and chiffonwill be a good help, which are also in line with the lightness recommended in the next point.

Here are two of the freshest fabrics:

FACTORY-N. Reference: 03683/92-0007Viscose. Fine fabric with a lot of fall. Geometric print.

FACTORY-N. Reference: 03683/55-0103. Viscose. Fine fabric with a lot of drape. Polka dot print of 2.00 cm.

RAIZA. Reference: 03314/61-0447. Fine chiffon fabric with printed polka dots of 0,50 cms.

RAIZA. Reference: 03314/50-0207. Fine chiffon fabric with printed polka dots of 2.50 cm.

3- Thinner and Lighter Fabrics

As we mentioned in the previous point, the summer Flamenca de Verano needs a dress made with fine and light fabrics.

These will give us the necessary comedy and grace, without suffering (more than necessary) due to the high temperatures.

Let's look at some ideas:

MURTAS. Reference: 04113/02-0509. Fine stretch crepe fabric with 2.70 cm. polka dot print.

ZALABI. Referencia: 03314/50-0207. Bi-elastic crepe fabric with 0.60 cm. polka dot pattern.

4- Trend 2024: Visible organdy.

One of the growing trends we are seeing this season is the use of organdy.

The trend is to use a lot of organdy and very visible, a technique that will allow us to add a lot of volume to our suit without weighing it down.

Due to this growing trend, we have added a novelty: the new printed organdie, which can also be combined with plain organdie.

ORGANDI FLAMENCA ESTP. Reference: 03745/08-0703. Special rigid transparent fabric for under ruffles or for cancan. 2.5 cm. polka dot print.

ORGANDI FLAMENCA ESTP. Reference: 03745/07-0103. Special rigid transparent fabric for under ruffles or for cancan. 1 cm check pattern.

ORGANDI FLAMENCA ESTP. Reference: 03745/06-0116. Special rigid transparent fabric for under ruffles or for cancan. Polka dot pattern between 2,00 and 3,50 cms.

ORGANDI FLAMENCA. Reference: 01496-0002. Special rigid transparent fabric for under flounces or for cancan. Available in various colours.

5- Trend 2024: Essential Colours.

As the fashion gurus say, there are colours that are a must. And it wouldn't be any different when it comes to wearing a flamenco dress at night.

This year the following shades stand out:

Classic red and black.

A genuinely flamenco combination that couldn't fail on this occasion either. Two empowering and very flamenco tones that will make all our art shine.

ZAGRA. Reference: 04117/08-0401. Elastic chiffon fabric printed with polka dots 0.40 cm.

The shades between navy blue and blue.

Undoubtedly, the 2024 colour for flamenco fashion. A colour that has been very popular thanks to its strength. It is a colour that transmits confidence and security, and this is transmitted in the flamenco dancer's step.

SALVORA. Reference: 04021-0328. Jacquard chiffon fabric.

TORA. Reference: 00470-0328. Very drapey crepe fabric.

Gold and earth tones.

The colours that remind us of the sunrise, that connect us with our earth and make us serene.

These are the shades that range from golden yellows to reddish-orange and earth tones, which are the other sensation of the season.

ZARZA. Reference: 03685-0505. Fine embroidered and devoured fabric.

HORTENSIA. Reference: 04158-0006. Jacquard chiffon fabric.

Pink tones, between powdery and Barbie style.

We close this review with the last colour of the season. The Barbie effect has reached all corners of the planet and all forms of fashion.

This year , powdery pinks and calm pinks stand out, approaching the Barbie shade (without going as far as fuchsia).

HUELVA. Reference: 04116/06-0009. Embroidered and perforated cotton batiste fabric.

D-GEORGETTE. Reference: 03852/04-0928. Dense chiffon fabric. Polka dot print 0.50 cm.
