Young Ait Haddidou woman at the Imilchil Brides' Fair, the High Atlas, Morocco. The fair, or moussem, which is held by the local Berber tribe, is an annual event consisting of trading goods, praying at a marabout, the grave of a local saint, and searching for a suitable marriage partner. The way in which the woman wears her headdress tells whether she has even been married. Divorce is common in the area. Her clothing, e g the striped, woollen cloak, is typical of the Hait Haddidou women.
