And more recently on every fashionista who can afford a Balmain SS09 jacket:
While I, (along with the rest of the fashion loving world) adore these Balmain jackets, I have to say, if presented with the choice between owning a Christopher Decarnin interpretation, or an original 19th century uniform, historical accuracy would win out. Check out these amazing uniforms. I particularly love Prussian Hussar outfits.

This one makes my head spin. Those crazy foot bandsmen!
