Some of prints were "imaginary" portraits.

The pose is similar to another of Empress Eugenie, her rival empress in France.

She looked a bit older in this portrait...

Although I found it labeled as a coronation portrait is noticeable that it really isn't. She was maturer there and the fashion proves it.

Two more portraits...
Queen of Hungary

Another

I think the braid crown on her head remained her hairstyle throughout her last years (so was her sisters Marie, Mathilde and Sophie).

I think there was a photo of Sisi in a plaid (tartan like) dress. That was a true picture of her as a young girl.
