Spanish term or phrase: plante
Hello. I am translating an article about the Feria del Caballo de Jerez:

"Centenares de jinetes y amazonas, vestidos de corto y de faralaes respectivamente, recorren el Paseo Principal en una inigualable composición de elegancia, **plante** y majestuosidad."

Thanks for your help :)
