Tellement French: a History of the Beret

Inescapably associated with France, the Beret is a soft woolen hat that is recognized throughout the world. Sometimes seen as outdated and rural, sometimes as chic and sophisticated, sometimes revolutionary, it is worn by many types of people. It is a mark of artists and also the most common military headdress today.
