31. From Le Monde (translated), so far, yes. No ski masks.
The text of the keeper, Michele Alliot-Marie , largely inspired by a bill the patron of UMP deputies, Jean-Francois Cope , do not specifically target the full veil but prohibits "concealment of the face."

"During the meeting of the Law Committee, Mr. Glavany said that politicians from left and right, "all agreed on the ban" the full veil, but that there was "a variation on the ways and fields of the ban. "Censorship by the Constitutional Council or the European Court of Human Rights would be a priceless gift is the fundamentalists," said the member of the Hautes-Pyrenees. So in the street. "We can not limit the ban, which can only be general," replied the UMP rapporteur of the bill, Jean-Paul Garraud , who appealed to the left: "It is important to find a general agreement on this fundamental issue after the parliamentary resolution passed unanimously. The general prohibition in the bill is "legally solid," said Garraud.

So yes, it looks like people can't go around wearing ski masks either. I wonder if the wording they finalize will exclude sporting events or such.
