Typically French...

As well as being a fashion statement
on and off for decades,
the distinguishable blue beret
is always associated with France and being ‘French’...

Why is it so?

In all the years I lived here the number of berets I have sighted in France
could be counted on one hand.
Admittedly, most of my time has been spent skiing in the Alps,
swanning around Provence,
the French Riviera and living it up in Paris,
so perhaps I need to head (pardon that pathetic pun)
for the Basque region...!
