In politics, a rosette is a fabric decoration worn by political candidates to identify themselves as belonging to a particular party.[1] The rosette, worn on the chest or suit jacket, will show the colour or colours of the political party that the candidate represents.[2] Rosettes are worn by campaigning politicians in the United Kingdom, New Zealand and some other countries.
