STUNNING braids with ribbons a la Cadre Noir

So I've been struggling to figure out how the Cadre Noir du Saumur braid their horses, they're stunnnnnnning.. especially with those cute rosettes crowning their heads <3 <3

I've been searching online foreverrrrr.. but I couldn't find any instructions ;(

All you grooming experts, help s'il te plaît

Here are some photos:

Anyone? ;(

I LOVE the top braid. I'd do that to my horse in fun colors to match his polo wraps if I could! =P

Is there any chance you can find a side pic of it (from withers to poll) I think I know how it's done

Wow, that's beautiful!

I wish you could do that in normal horse shows, I would SO DO IT

Find someone who does draft horses, a lot of them know how to do it as I have seen their horses with these braids

That looks like some type of inlaid french braid with the ribbon! Now you have me curious!

More photos..

Where I live, it's too hot for draft horses, they'd suffocate and won't tolerate this environment.. so as you can imagine, my chances of finding someone who does draft horses is next to none =/
