Here are some sites that seem quite good. You could mention that “Terrible”, Russian word “grozny”, means awe-inspiring, as well as dreaded.

Here is the Cap of Monomakh: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomakh’s_Cap
Try to find a dressing gown to serve as a long robe. You could use cotton wool to make a pointed beard – make it a bit dusty! If you have time, you could also try to make Monomakh’s Cap with fake fur, or an old fur hat, tin foil and cheap gems stuck on. Have fun, and good luck!
