Who doesn't know it, the legendary blue farmer's smock
The farmer's smock is perhaps the most well-known carnival item there is. It is a black or dark blue tailcoat (or work jacket). The farmer's smock has no front closure and is put on over the head. In the past, the smock was mainly worn by farmers and workers as a precursor to the overall. This garment was put on over the clothing. When the farmer's smock is put on, it is clear to most people quite quickly that carnival is just around the corner. Carnival goers know this fancy dress item all too well. And of course the red checked farmer's handkerchief for around the neck is indispensable. Those beautiful handkerchiefs and scarves can also be found at e-Carnavalskleding.
The origin of the blue smock with carnival comes from the farmers who went to the city from the countryside to enjoy a party. The smocks they wore in the country, they still wore during the parties. Gradually, the farmer's smock has become the symbol of many carnival associations.
