Magnificence of the Zsars - Victoria and Albert

http://www.vam.ac.uk/collections/fashion/tsars/

I went to this exhibition on Sunday. It is quite a small collection but remarkable as it is curated and mounted by the Moscow Kremlin Museums.

This exhibition illustrates Russia’s relationship with her past and with Europe through two centuries of men’s court dress.
The Moscow Kremlin Museums, together with the Armoury Chamber, form Russia’s oldest national treasury, founded in 1806. Their collections include the dress and regalia worn by the emperors and the Russian court from the 1720s to 1917. This exhibition focuses on men’s dress, particularly the coronation dress of the emperor and other participants in ceremonies at court
