Zouave was the title given to certain infantry regiments in the French army, normally serving in French North Africa between 1831 and 1962.



The characteristic zouave uniform included short open fronted jackets, baggy trousers and often sashes and oriental headgear.



The four Zouave regiments of the French Army wore their traditional colorful dress during the early months of the First World War. The development of the machine gun, rapid fire artillery and improved small arms obliged them to adopt a plain khaki uniform from 1915 on.
