Speaking of colour, this dramatic red flamenco outfit is worn by our star when the Muppets world tour hits Madrid and she performs the Macarena song and dance with flamingos (only on the Muppets can you say that I'm sure), plus they sing the Muppets intro theme song in Spanish too.
This traditional flamenco ensemble consists of a skirt of rich red silk charmeuse and a bodice of embroidered floral lace with red sequins over a nude mesh net, the outfit is topped with a red tulle netted shawl with red silk fringe and beads, a black mantilla veil and a black Spanish hair comb.
