cuirassier uniform

A cuirassier uniform is a historic military attire worn by heavy cavalry soldiers called cuirassiers, primarily in the 17th to 19th centuries. It typically includes a distinctive metal breastplate (cuirass) for protection, often decorated with emblems or colors representing their regiment or country. The uniform also features a high-collared coat, riding boots, and a helmet, sometimes with plumes or plumes. Designed for both defense and display, the cuirassier uniform symbolizes strength and prestige, combining functional armor with formal military dress, and has evolved from battlefield gear to a ceremonial or nostalgic costume today.
