regimentals
Soldier's formal attire
Regimentals are the uniform and insignia of a military regiment.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned, evoking formal dress uniforms rather than combat gear: The officers appeared in full regimentals for the ceremony.
The word occasionally extends to any distinctive uniform or formal attire.
