esflamenco tips: Combine
this dress with a mantón (Manila shawl) or mantoncillo
(small shawl) in a plain colour that contrasts with
the dress.
esflamenco secret: in spite of the
dress' V-shaped back, the height of its back allows
it to be used while wearing a bra, without the bra ever
being visible.
The dresses for dancing are light, made of materials
that fall in a sheer manner and have neutral colours.
They must be comfortable, so as not to obstruct one's
movements, and they must also be well-fitted to the
body in order to emphasize the movements of the bailaora
(female flamenco dancer). This is possible thanks to
the gliding qualities of the skirt and to the way in
which the material falls.
Definitions:
