Dressing in mantilla: fabrics for Holy Week

We review the fabrics of women's fashion for women and children, to wear Mantilla at Holy Week. To do this, it is important to follow some traditional guidelines:

The mantilla should be made of black lace, with no frills such as ruffles or bows. It should be worn over a high comb and is usually combined with a dark suit. For this , Juan Foronda offers you an exceptional collection of Mantillas.

Finally, it is important to keep in mind that the tradition of dressing in mantillas takes place on the Holy Thursday and Friday, especially on Holy Thursday, to visit the churches and tabernacles as a sign of mourning for the death of the Lord, a tradition that remains strong and deep-rooted in our land.

In recent times and with the aim of continuing and perpetuating the tradition, the week before Holy Week, in some schools, the girls dress up as Mantillas.

However, beyond what the schools do, many families also take advantage of the occasion to dress all generations in Mantilla.

As girls do not usually have their own mantilla, they opt for a simple and delicate lace, such as our RANYA model.
