I was looking forward to seeing what women were wearing in Rome, which has a reputation for stylish dressing (in Venice, the big news was leggings, leggings, leggings.)
The problem was finding any actual Romans to observe, or rather picking them out from the millions of tourists milling in the streets.
A man in a uniform is always a safe bet to be a native, and the gentleman to the right in the picture is certainly wearing a beautifully cut coat.
But that hat! I've never understood the reasoning behind hats that teeter on top of the head instead of sitting firmly -- and attractively -- farther down on the crown. It just looks silly.
