Bargain Flamenco Dresses

As we all know,  flamenco dresses are horribly expensive.   Of course, we offer some good value flamenco dresses here on Dress for Flamenco, but what if you don't like buying online?

One option is to go to Spain.  I know that sounds like an expensive solution, but what a marvellous excuse to take a flamenco holiday!   If you book yourself into a course at one of the flamenco schools, you can kill two birds with one stone, so you can still say you saved money

Schedule your visit to just after the Feria de Abril in Sevilla, and you'll find some bargains in the flamenco stores in Andalusia.  Flamenco dancers follow fashion as much as the rest of us, and the stores sell off this season's styles at a discount.   Back home in your own country, no one will know you're wearing last year's style, and you'll have an authentic flamenco dress at a fraction of the price.

Incidentally, if you decide to go to Seville for the Feria and stay for the sales, make sure you have accommodation before you go.  During the Feria, hotels book out far in advance (and are very expensive).
