Re: [Cz-L] The Pardini Promenade photo

I will give it a try :
 This is no line up as this is a holyday with no shops.
 Queues came with the Soviets , not before.
   It is a hot summer day and people look for the narrow strip of shadow.
   There is a very small number of females on the scene anyway.
    Female dresses and hats have to be exposed , therefore must be in
   center. Crinolines and big hats do not like crowds.
     Vanity, pure female vanity.
