Topless Woman Scandalises Pattaya’s Russian Bathers
In a shocking fashion fail, a hatless Russian woman recently outraged an entire beach of her countrymen by wading into the water without sporting any headgear.
Ludmilla Oligarcharchashenko later told our reporter:
“I was shocked to be told I couldn’t swim without a hat. Mine had blown off as I walked into the water, and I thought I could get away with it.
Unfortunately I was wrong, as the Hat Nazis immediately pounced, driving me out of the water.
I understand wearing a hat in the water is a good idea to stop sunstroke, but to force it as a fashion rule is ridiculous”.
Pattaya is already well known in Russia as the home of fashionable beach hats and headwear, and City Hall fear, if left unchecked, this outrageous lack of respect for Russian hat-wearing will give Pattaya a bad name from Abakan to Zverevo.
We have been told, in an attempt to police headgear on the beaches, the recently erected and currently rusting lifeguard stations were originally intended to accommodate spying members of the Russian hat pressure group, Tourist Women Hate All Titfer*-less Swimmers, or TWHATS.
Group spokeswoman Dvina Zapadnaya from Zapadnaya Dvina said “Something has to be done to uphold the proud hat-wearing tradition of visitors from Mother Russia. We don’t want to appear ignorant or rude in front of our Thai hosts, do we?”

Another holidaymaker, suitably hatted, checks her bad boys are in order, in case her decolletage offends.
What’s more, this love of hats in Pattaya is not just confined to Russian women.
In Pattaya Now has also witnessed the rise and rise of the white sailor cap, usually decked out with a gold braid anchor motif, worn, at a jaunty angle, on the heads of many ageing, male Russian holidaymakers here, making them look extremely camp, like something from a bad 1970s Carry On film.
In Pattaya Now has even seen these hats being worn by characters in signage outside Russian restaurants in Fun Town, such as the one below, for the White Sun Restaurant in North Pattaya.

One of these characters just doesn't get it. As a result his hair has been bleached white by the sun, hence the name of the restaurant.
