English term or phrase: фрачник
В руководстве по фирменному стилю встретилось слово "фрачник". Словари знают только одноимённое насекомое-вредитель. На самом деле, имеется в виду уменьшенная копия наградного знака для ношения на фраке. Посмотреть на них можно тут: http://frachnik.narod.ru/

Никак не могу подобрать эквивалент.

Буду благодарен за помощь!

Меняю степень уверенности на высший:-). Кстати, даже в Вашем тексте:

Официально ношение фрачников не одобрялось. Что же заставляло людей за собственные деньги заказывать у ювелиров эти миниатюры?

Попробуйте погуглить miniature medals.

Explanation:
Нормально ссылку сайт не позволяет сделать. Поэтому зайдине в Imperial Russia и найдите THE NEW YORK SALE Auction XIII.
Там каталог online, в котором Вы найдете много чего, в том числе и dress miniatures. "Фрачник" - это фрачный знак. И они бывают разные, от сложных миниатюр, до обычных с виду badges.
