Flamenco fashion is the only regional attire that evolves year after year, adapting to the runways without losing its artisanal essence. Whether to stroll through the Real or to make the journey to a village, the flamenco dress is a garment that completely transforms the wearer.
Before choosing your outfit, remember that this is an indicative guide. The perfect flamenco look depends on whether you are going to a city fair or a romería (pilgrimage), the hours you will spend on your feet, and, of course, your personal style. At Buganco, we want you to feel comfortable and radiant among the ruffles.
How to Choose your Flamenco Dress according to the Occasion
Not all events require the same style. The versatility of flamenco fashion allows us to adapt the suit to the environment:
The April Fair Look
For the April Fair look, sophistication is usually the goal. Cuts that enhance the figure, skirts with lots of "clavel" (full-bodied ruffles), and classic fabrics like poplin or plumeti are the kings of the Real. In Seville, the dress is usually more structured and is always accompanied by a good shawl (mantoncillo).
If you are going to the Pescaíto dinner, you should know that tradition dictates that you should not wear a flamenco dress during the night. In this case, for the first night of the Fair, you can opt for fluid chiffon dresses, polka dot skirts with an elegant ruffled blouse, or frocked dresses.






The Romería Look: Comfort and Tradition
If you are looking for a romería look, the focus changes. Here, comfort for walking or horse riding prevails. The outfits are usually made of lighter fabrics like linen or bámbula, with fewer ruffles and looser cuts (such as the "bata canastera" style). Skirts and blouses or suits are also in style. It is the ideal time to wear fresher and more country-style designs.
Flamenco Accessories: The Detail that Makes the Difference
A flamenco look is not complete without its accessories. Flamenco accessories are what truly personalize the outfit:
- The Mantoncillo (Shawl): Crossed, at the waist, or with a special brooch. It is the key piece of color. It can be long, short, with floral embroidery, or plain... The most important thing is its triangular shape and the elegant fringes that form its structure.
- The Flower: Always on top, in the center or slightly tilted, but never "above the ear." There are different types of flowers, from carnations to roses or peonies, and they are usually always combined with the dress or the shawl.
- Earrings and Combs (Peinetas): Hoops and corals are classics, but colored resins are gaining ground.
- Esparto grass: Esparto grass sandals are the most common go-to shoe for flamenco looks. They offer comfort for walking on the sandy terrain and style.
