A girl is seen wearing traditional clothing known as "Pollera" inside a beauty salon as she is helped by women before the annual Thousand Polleras parade in Las Tablas, in the province of Los Santos, January 12, 2013. According to local residents, the Pollera dates back to the 18th century and was worn by the Spanish lower classes. Today, it has become the Panamanian national costume. The dress is made entirely by hand and the jewellery worn is pure gold and worth thousands of dollars. REUTERS/Carlos Jasso (PANAMA - Tags: SOCIETY)
