Spain is known for its rich cultural heritage, and traditional Spanish clothing is one of the most visible and colorful aspects of that heritage. Some of the main traditional Spanish clothing items include:

  • Flamenco dress: a long, flowing dress with ruffles and vibrant colors, often worn for traditional flamenco dancing performances.
  • Matador suit: a form-fitting suit with short jacket and pants, worn by bullfighters.
  • Mantilla: a lace veil worn over a woman's hair and shoulders, often paired with a peineta (a large, decorative comb).
  • Cordobés hat: a flat-brimmed hat with a wide band, often worn by matadors and commonly associated with Andalusia.
  • Castanets: small, hand-held instruments made of wood or other materials that are clicked together to make a rhythmical sound, often used in traditional Spanish dance performances.
