More information:

Called a fez (fes), bright red felt hats with black tassels are displayed at an outdoor market in Istanbul, Turkey, where such hats are sold to foreign visitors as souvenirs. Turkey's infamous Hat Law of 1925 prohibited the wearing of the then-popular fez or any other headgear except European-style hats. The law is still in effect but not enforced.
