Our black master gown is a full-length robe that features long crescent sleeves with horizontal arm slits. The gown has a tightly pleated yoke and is suitable for students and academics at Australian universities. We are proud that our gowns are made from a recycled polyester / viscose blend that prevents the equivalent of 28 plastic bottles from ending up in landfill. The 310GSM fabric has a beautifully soft hand feel and boasts superior crease and stain resistance compared to materials such as wool or cotton. Graduation gowns are intended to be loose-fitting. In Australia, we follow the UK tradition and gowns are worn open at the front over existing clothing and should drape down to the mid-to-lower-calf. We recommend that you do not wear bulky clothing under an academic gown in order to maintain its elegant drape.
