Academic dress / gown hire

Academic dress consists of gown, hood and mortar board. Although it is not a requirement to wear academic dress, the majority of the graduates choose to do so. Traditional dress is also welcomed.

Graduates are encouraged to wear a dark suit, or jacket and trousers/skirt, white shirt/blouse (with button to enable hood to be secured), dark socks/tights and dark footwear.

To hire or purchase your academic dress you need to PRE-ORDER directly with Ede and Ravenscroft - before these deadlines:

April ceremonies: 24 March 2011
June ceremonies: 27 May 2011
September ceremonies: 18 August 2011

Your gown will then be ready for collection on the day of your ceremony. Please remember to bring your receipt for reference.
