Dear Lois, Myself and several people I showed it to) said "Parade red-and-blues!" (For people who haven't read those books yet, this is re: Barrayar/Vorkosigan.) They appear to be costumes for the the Visconti film 'Ludwig' set in 1864; I hope you enjoy the picture, plus I include an algorithm question mark? https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6810/119319383.1c7/0_8e8e3_33f63b4e_XL.jpg

Fun!
For another visual source, the forest green uniforms in Branagh's Hamlet film are both exactly the right color and the right Ruritanian mode for some of the Barrayaran green uniforms, possibly modified by a touch of Soviet drab.

I saw a question below about a book about Miles' children - I second the notion. I'd love to read it. But have you considered "going back in time" and writing another book about a younger Miles? Such as his time as an Imperial Auditor? I love your books but Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen seemed so final.

I just realized that Miles in The Warrior's Apprentice is the Wizard of Oz! Elena the Scarecrow needs an education. Arde the Tin Man is emotionally dependent on wormhole jumps and his "bottle of oil", the green booze. Baz Jesek is, of course, the Cowardly Lion. Miles convinces them that they already have it in them, and flies away in a balloon while the Dendarii cheer. There's no place like Barrayar! Am I close?
