Apparently Anastasia was Colonel-in-Chief of the 148th Kaspiisky Infantry Regiment but I have been unable to find any kind of uniform info.

Excellent photo's Jerry and I'm especially pleased you posted a larger photo of Maria, the one I have is just the head and shoulders. Here's a plate of the uniform details.

I like this picture of Princess Viktoria - shows the sabretache, the stripe down her dress and the horse furniture.

Queen Victoria also appeared in her younger days in the uniform of Colonel-in-chief of the Guards. The uniform (tiny!) used to be in Museum of London, don't know if it is still there.

They look great - how about doing the crown princesses of Prussia in their Colonel-in-Chief uniforms to go with them?
