Just today, the official presentation of the clothing of the Bellesas del Foc d'Alacant 2025 and their respective Bridesmaids took place.
The event was held at the Tor de Rejas Restaurant in Alicante, where the exclusive fabrics that the representatives of the Bonfires of San Juan will wear during the official acts of the most emblematic festivities of the city were shown.
This year, traditional Alicante clothing will come to life in the figures of Adriana Vico Melgar, from the Diputació-Renfe bonfire, and Valentina Tárraga Quesada, from the Rabassa bonfire.
The spectacular set of fabrics thatpresented is the result of months of dedication and meticulous craftsmanship by the Vives y Marí team.
For La Bellesa del Foc, two impressive fabrics have been created: a second official suit made of 54cm narrow silk with the drawing "La Paz" and a "Verde Orientale" background, and a third suit also in narrow silk with the drawing "Carbonell" in the background "Moka".
