Willi, as a woman (who is old enough, almost, to be your grandma), if I saw a man walking down the street wearing the Horizon blue that many French pilotes de chasse wore, I'd likely be all over him like a cheap suit! lol Especially, if he had blue eyes (like my boyfriend)! lol

About wearing your Uhlan tunic to the prom: check with your girlfriend, first. See if she might also like to dress the part. Evening frocks for ladies from that era are just gorgeous! One of these days, when I get back on my feet financially, I'll make myself some clothes from that era. Heck! I'd like to make myself a flyboy's uniform! And wear it! Why not? I once made my son and I TNG uniforms to wear to Star Trek conventions! I still have the pattern for those, too. They came out great! We had the communicators and the pips and everything!
