Following the beginning of the Revolution in Paris, a new 'Provisional Ordnance' was published on 1 April 1791, where new 'republicanised uniforms' were introduced. Under this reorganisation, each 6 regiments (for instance the 1st–6th or 7th–12th) were grouped into uniform divisions. In addition to the new uniform, the regiment was moved far up in the precedence line to became the 12th, now falling after the Régiment de Royal Roussillon Cavalerie (11th) and Régiment d'Orléans Cavalerie (13th). The new uniform now consisted of the following: black bicorne with a white and back cockade, green bottom and jonquil yellow topped plume, jonquil yellow cuffs, reverses, facings, turnbacks, button flap trim, and turnbacks, 'Republican Blue' coat, epaulettes, and vertical pockets, white small clothes, pants, and white trimmed [blue] saddles.
