Oxford Spanish Dictionary
-
- A Mexican cowboy or cowgirl skilled in horsemanship. The traditional charro costume is very elaborate and trimmed with silver. A man's outfit consists of a high-crowned, wide-brimmed hat, tight trousers, a white shirt, waistcoat and short jacket. A woman's outfit is a similar but with a long, wide skirt.
Charros originated charrerías, the culture associated with horse-riding and rodeo skills. They also take part in festivals known as charreadas.
