I don't doubt the validity of the reconstruction, after all the Papal Guard look bloody daft to my eyes,
Why? one of the least flamboyant figures in the entire book!
That is exactly why I dont doubt what you have done as fashion has no bounds ! The pom poms on the Papal Guard shoes :o I can understand flamboyance but what struck me was why go for leather rather than silver or gold plated metal ?
The Landsknechts are a good point in case as the vanity of a warrior can make for some outlandish costume. The uniform thread covers some of this but I haven't stuck my oar into that one as its such a wide subject.
