Abstract
The influence of the Spanish costume declined from the 17th century, but specially since the arrival of the Bourbons in Spain. The Frenchification was a phenomenon, linked to the ways of Versailles, in relation to the contemporary Spanish identity crisis. Despite the traditional resistance to Gallic taste, notorious in the Mutiny of Esquilache (1766), the force of phenomena such as majismo and even the triumph against the French in the Peninsular War, in the XIX the consolidation will take place in the country in the French ways and fashions. The decay of the cape and the mantilla, Spanish symbols as seen in the 1871 Rebellion of the Mantillas, reflected the problems facing the progress, the industrialization and the bourgeois culture of the country, as well as the crisis of Spanish nationalism.
