Tradition, emotion and the excellence of Valencian dress met on Wednesday, November 4, in Burjassot. Beatriz Blanco Tamarit and Julia Vizcayno Orero, Falleras Mayores of Valencia 2027, visited the headquarters of Alan Indumentaria to select the official mantillas they will wear on March 17-18 for the Flower Offering to the Virgin of the Forsaken.
Alan Indumentaria repeats as the official mantilla provider for the highest representatives of the festival. According to the firm, both arrived with clear ideas: «They knew quite well what they wanted and, together with the team, we have managed to perfectly capture what they were looking for».
The official mantilla design will remain a secret until the Offering, a tradition that maintains the anticipation around one of the most emblematic accessories of the fallera dress.
The visit also served to choose a second, non-official mantilla that Alan Indumentaria gifts to the Falleras Mayores to wear at events prior to the Offering. These second mantillas will be unveiled at the Indumentaria Gala, together with those of the Courts of Honour.
«We are very happy with the trust placed in us and ready for new challenges», say those at Alan Indumentaria, a firm with nearly half a century dedicated to traditional Valencian dress.
