How high were the Imperial Dwarves? Who designed their costumes and did they have specific colours?

So old fashion....
Please, cm

Darling, please try to figure out it yourself: One feet is 30,48 cm and one inch is 2,54 cm.

Yeah, i get somewhat confused on that mesuring stuff! Anyway, it seems like peter the great was the tallest of the tsars! But i also feel sorry for nicholas, since he was the only short tsar!

Does no one know the heights of the Imperial Dwarves? How tall were the Imperial Dogs and Cats? What about the Imperial Ponies?

...What about the Imperial Ponies?

Well, by definition, a regular pony can be no higher than 14.2 hands at the withers -- but perhaps an Imperial Hand is bigger?  ;D

.... how tall was Alexei??

At what age?

David,

I understand that the "Imperial Dwarves" were as high as they were wide.

And of course the general consensus was that Alexei would have been much taller than his father if he had lived to be a man. Quite a few people who knew the family agreed Alexei would have been taller than Nicholas.

that would be true on alexei..i mean if he was 5'6 at 13, then imagine what it would be when he stopped growing since boys grow well into their late teens like 17-18 from what i know. I think the girls height are in this order: marie,tatiana,olga and ana. I know ana was 5'2 and olga was 5'4 but ther two look close in hieght but im not sure.
