Figure 1.-- This family snapshot shows a Finnish family during their summer vacation in Nilsiä, a municipality in Eastern Finland. Notice the casual styled clothing that the children are wearing, including the American baseball caps. Of course Dinnish children do not play baseball, but there are no soccer caps. It used to be possible to identify where children were from by their clothes. Children in the 21st century essentuially dressed alike throughout Europe, a kind of pan-European fashion that began to develop in the 1980s.
