Treasures of the Last Tsar:

Costumes





The Romanovs, being a very wealthy royal family, had a wealth of clothing. Some of their most impressive pieces of clothing were military uniforms. Of the four pictures below, three picture military uniforms. The first is the Admiral's Uniform, worn by Nicholas II. Next are the honorary uniforms modelled by Tatiana and Olga. Finally, the Cossack uniforms of Nicholas and Alexis. The fourth image pictures Nicholas' dress uniform for courtly occasions.
