Hi,



another question to the fourrageres...



What is the fourragere fantoche and if it isn´t the same like the f. fantaisie, what is the difference between both.



Thanks



Michael

Hi,

It is the same thing. In both cases those "fourragères" were provided by military tailors or private companies.

Usually, they used to have a special engraved "ferret" and often a double suplementary lanyard over the shoulder, like for the "fourragère double".
This was a fashion which started in the 20s.
Nowadays, it is very rare to see that kind of "fourragère fantoche" worn in uniform.
