The Atorrak, dressed in embroidered pillowcases, blouses and skirts, are conducted by a bandleader in the Basque coastal town of Mundaka, northern Spain on Carnival Sunday, February 7, 2016. According to local legend, their outfits are inspired by the nobleman Count Anton Erreka, who, arriving home after a drink, inadvertently donned his wife's clothes. His escape from an angry spouse animated the townsmen to mimic his curious dress sense during the carnival season. REUTERS/Vincent West
