Pig People and black rose corsages?

[minespatch 42,122]

I noticed something interesting with these particular traders. Their arms have corsages.

This is the only one that has a white corsage.

Any symbolism behind this?

I think those are actually their hoof poses when they're running.

Maybe they think the absent Pig King means he died....

Maybe the Pig King died and that's why you can't harm it in Reign of Giants...

 

The hat shopkeeper might just do her own thing out of madness? idk... I just thought that because of the mad hatter from Alice in the woderland, also the fact that hat manufacturers in the past used to use mercury in a hat making process and mercury fumes may cause hallusinations/madness

He's right, actually. Those aren't flowers or anything special, but rather the sprites they use when they're running down the screen, they put their hands up like that. Look at all of their hoofs, the only one with white hoofs also have that white "corsage" notice that?
This was also tested by looking at the files, sorry to burst any bubbles you guys might've had...

Actually that sprite is when they're holding onto something like a weapon/torch. Although you only see it being used on guards.
