FESTIVAL QUEENS - COTTON QUEEN & HARVEST QUEEN

FESTIVAL QUEENS - COTTON QUEEN & HARVEST QUEEN.
I love this colorful set from the 1940's. In the farming districts of this country they used to elect these Queens of whatever crop was predominant. Their costumes could be even more outrageous than the ones pictured here as they rode the main float during parades.

Tomorrow we will feature the Cherry and Rose Queens and their wardrobes.
