What army in history had the greatest A E S T H E T I C S?

shit bait

>>879925
US during Vietnam.
GDR during the 80's.
USSR during the 80's also.
US during the 90's.

>>879925
I don't know why people like the Nazi uniforms so much, they're really pretty ugly.

>>879958
Some of their camo patterns are pretty dank, but their helmets are pretty gay, and I'm sick of hearing that fucking le hugo boss designed SS uniforms meme.

Propably hoplites desu. All them shaped breastplates, corinthian helmets etc.

>>879958

Name one 20th century military uniform which is better looking.

That is a good looking uniform, but Waffen SS still takes the cake for me.

Well if you want to go all stylised and fancy, the Soviets did it far better, especially when talking officer uniforms. Grey and black is a really fucking poor colour scheme to be quite honest with you my family.

Personally though I think WW2 Imperial Japanese Army uniforms were effay as fuck, with WW2 RAF not far behind. I'm not even a weeb I just think they blend functionality with just that perfect little bit of style so well.

>>880037
Literally perfect in every aesthetic sense.

In terms of stylised officer uniforms, yeah, they fucking decimate the mediocre grey of the nazis.

Don't know about the best, but French uniforms have been consistently appealing throughout their history imo.

They didn't even looked like soldiers, more like violent mercs.

no purpose, as they are an anarchonism

when hussars were an actual part of the army they mounted a single wooden wing to their sadle to frighten enemy horses

later Poland simply lacked money and resources to train hussars so they became sort of a parade troop to look nice next to the king, then they began wearing two wings on their back

popculture doesn't help either, it's a meme similar to

>all romans wear laminata

As far as pre-20th century, Napoleon's forces had great uniforms.

No reason not to. We're talking about a country which attacked Germany and started a war with an army fit for XVIIIc. mounted campaigns.
