Each flamenco dress can be
accompanied with lot of accessories but the essential one is a flower pinned to
hair. Traditionally roses and carnations were used, whether natural or fabric, always
matching the material and color of the dress. In recent years, however, the
flowers have changed and it’s good to
follow the new trends so you don’t look the same every year.
Peonies started to be popular
couple of years ago. If your flamenco dress is made of reds and pinks, a
natural peony in a similar color is a perfect match. What’s more it makes your
look unique and elegant because of its special petals and facture of the
flower.
Another flower that has been
widely used in recent years, known for its beauty and versatility (it looks
good with all kind of hairstyles) is the hydrangea (commonly known as
hortensia). If you want more natural look you can choose less artificial colors
such as white, pink or blue. They look very good on your hair, worn in a
traditional way or above the ear as well.
If the flamenco dress is another
color we can always choose accessories and supplements which will match the
dress. Artificial hortensias or peonies come with all the colors you can
imagine. If you already have one you can even paint it in the color you wish in
order to fit into current trends.
The important thing is finding
the right color and choose a right size of the flower that goes well with other
accessories and that it looks natural and elegant. You can also use various
small flowers and make a combination of different shades that contrast with the
dress, using for example big hortensia in the middle and small flowers to form
a bouquet around. Combining tradition and new trends will look outstanding in
the Real de la Feria.
