Of Estonia: Some Dudes


After a couple days featuring mostly pictures of comely young women, however odd their headwear, we feel it important to note that we weren't there just to gawk at the fairer sex. There are also gentlemen in the parade, and though their hats aren't quite as striking, they would still merit a second look if you noticed someone walking down the street wearing one on the way to work. While we presume that the sharp red embroidery on the coat above is somehow traditional, it is not clear to your correspondent to what degree the blazers-and-little-sailors'-caps look was in use in Estonia in centuries past.
