Excuse my lack of knowledge on the clothing regulations and such of the German military, but was it normal for soldiers to wear brightly colored dunkelblau-era caps along with feldgrau uniforms, like your Hussar and Dragoon displays?
 
Beautiful Baden Dragoner Charles! Is the plate attached with screws or split pins? (Asking because I've seen some weird attachment methods on these - always interested in examples.)

Yes, it was normal during the war. In the 1915 peacetime regulations, this kind of combination was officially introduced.
Sometimes you can also discover soldiers wearing coloured uniforms with Feldgrau caps, which went against the regulations.
