The Countdown to New Year’s Eve and the Dress Debate
Only a few days remain until New Year’s Eve, one of the streets’ most anticipated moments. For many, curiosity centers on the outfits chosen by the presenters of Campanadas each year. This time, the spotlight lands on Cristina Pedroche, a Madrid native who has made her dress the icon of the year-end broadcast for nine consecutive years.
As Pedroche herself noted, glimpses of the dress are emerging. She explained that the design is assembled from modular parts, a concept she likens to a battery that powers the look. This sharing comes as part of a recurring tradition for the final night of the year, with Pedroche and Ecovidrio using the moment to tease fans with a playful Saint Innocents’ Day joke on December 28.
Pedroche joined forces with Ecovidrio, a non-profit in Spain focused on recycling glass containers, to launch an awareness campaign about the importance of glass recycling and its role in sustainability and environmental protection. An image released on her social networks revealed the dress for Campanadas, catching many by surprise.
In a visual montage, the presenter is shown wearing a green cape that echoes the shapes of Ecovidrio’s glass recycling containers found across the country. The outfit integrates one of the organization’s slogans: “Against climate change: Recycle glass.”
Alongside the reveal, Pedroche posted a message about glass recycling in Spain and the need to pass on a cleaner world to future generations. Her message aligns with a long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship, highlighting the importance of recycling and caring for the planet.
Pedroche has repeatedly demonstrated a commitment to sustainability through collaboration with Ecovidrio. For instance, during the 2018 chimes, she wore a pink cape with a rose motif and shoes crafted from recycled glass, designed specifically for her by Ecovidrio. She also became the face of the A Glass of Promises campaign, which encouraged people to recycle glass containers during the pandemic.
