Empress Elizabeth of Russia Forced People to Cross-dress And Was An Anti-Masker
She also had great legs, and was tired of not being able to show them off.
Crossdressing balls were popular in Europe, where men and women would don the attire of the opposite sex and wear masks during the whole affair. Empress Elizabeth took this to a whole new level, forcing members of her court to dress in drag and attend balls without the comfort of the anonymity offered by masks.
Most of her subjects hated these events. The only person who seemed to benefit from them was Elizabeth herself, who her courtiers regarded as being the best-dressed person at these Metamorphoses balls, often commenting that she never looked more complete than when she appeared as a man.

From Wikipedia:
It was reported that she threw two balls a week; one would be a large event with an average of 800 guests in attendance, most of whom were the nation's leading merchants, members of the lower nobility and guards stationed in and around the city of the event. The other ball was a much smaller affair reserved for her closest friends and members of the highest echelons of nobility.[48] The smaller gatherings began as masked balls, but evolved into the famous Metamorphoses balls by 1744.[49] At these Metamorphoses balls, guests were expected to dress as the opposite sex, with Elizabeth often dressing up as Cossack or carpenter in honour of her father.[49] Costumes not permitted at the event were those of pilgrims and harlequins, which she considered profane and indecent respectively.[50] Most courtiers thoroughly disliked the balls, as most guests by decree looked ridiculous, but Elizabeth adored them; as Catherine the Great's advisor Potemkin posited, this was because she was "the only woman who looked truly fine and completely a man.... As she was tall and possessed a powerful body, male attire suited her".[51] Kazimierz Waliszewski noted that Elizabeth had beautiful legs, and loved to wear male attire because of the tight trousers.[52]
