Great photo! I wish we could see the pagri flash. So many orders of dress in one of my favorite time periods; interwar in India, the second home of the old British Army.
The men were so much smaller and svelte compared to today. Dress uniforms worn today are essentially those of the early 20th century and they do not look as well on the much larger and bulky men these days in my opinion. Badges, trim and buttons are small in scale for the vast areas of cloth on a size 44 tunic.
