Graduation Gowns - Background

The graduation robe you will be wearing is specific to the institution where you are graduating and there are many variations in the style, cut and even colour of the gown you may be wearing.

The basic colour is black and most gown designs are based on very old patterns from Dublin, Cambridge and Oxford. Higher awards such as masters degrees and doctorates often have different gowns, doctorates tending to be more flamboyant with many colours being used including red, blue and green amongst others.

Marston Robing takes great care over the manufacture of its graduation gowns and we always ensure that the quality of the gowns is up to the high standard we require.
