Wrong country - see digitalcollections.nypl.org/items/510d47da-dc97-a3d9-e040.... Finland should be corrected with Sweden.

These look like Georgian costumes to me.

Hi. I assume they are Russian Cossacks either from the Terek or Kuban Hosts. Cossacks from the Caucausus region adopted the way of dress of many of the local tribesman. Especially the "cherkeska", which is was worn by primarily by the Circassians and the Chechens, but also the Georgians. Sort of like American frontiersmen (Daniel Boone) adopting much of the dress of the Native Americans and American cowboys copying the Mexican saddles, the lasso, and the wide brimmed hats.

circassians !!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circassians
