Russian Life Guard Cavalry, cuirassier regiment.
>>3209301
And, Spanish cuirassiers.
I know it's a stock photo, but it's reenactors in uniforms of the Preobrazhensky Guard Regiment in a reenactment of the Battle of Borodino.
>>3209001
It really depends, and the Polish one is not a shako, its a polish hat, my personal favorite headgear though has to be the half mitre/bearskin cap like the Austrian Grenadiers.
>>3208991
>>3208983
I also like the bicorne hats worn by the French

Prussian Landwehr had nice uniforms, too bad they were pretty shit-tier at fighting though
>>3214086
what do you expect from a militia unit?
>>3208966
Wouldn't all these fancy uniforms rack up a huge cost? It seems a waste when they're going to get muddy and shot up anyway.

The details and the colors were used to distinguish units, friend from foe, hussars from dragoons or grenadiers from chasseurs, in battle it got very smoky from the musket fire and the generals needed a good way to distinguish their troops so they could know their position, flags do this as well but spotting a flag is difficult and it may have fallen.
>>3215072
Oh and, as for the expense, im sure non of those ornaments are made from anything expensive, cheap brass and leather probably, but im no expert, considering these were among the first truly national armies and the large scales of the battles im sure the equipment, barring the weapons was quite affordable. But again im not the best when it comes to this period, so take it with a grain of salt.
>>3215072
Can't find any decent information but it's doubtful it cost a lot. Only thing that immediately springs to mind is the french shifting some of their units back to white.
Pre-1808 French uniforms were pretty good
