The powder blue woolcloth is intricately embroidered in gilt thread, creating a mesmerizing floral pattern that adds a touch of grandeur to this exquisite garment. The uniform features gilt bullion epaulettes and is lined with scarlet satin, further enhancing its regal appeal. Set against a striking black background, this formal attire stands out as a symbol of power and prestige.
