'''Dress robes''' are a formal variety of [[robes]] worn by [[Wizards|witches and wizards]] for special occasions. Most dress robes for boys had a formal black robe with a white, buttoned-down shirt underneath. Girls' dress robes were basically prom dresses instead of traditional robes. In the [[1994–1995 school year]], students of [[Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry]] were required to bring dress robes in addition to their normal uniforms and equipment. This was due to the fact that the school was hosting the [[Triwizard Tournament]] that year, which included the [[Yule Ball]] in [[December]]. Members of the [[Slug Club]] also appeared to be wearing dress robes when they attended the [[Slug Club Christmas party]] two years later. They are more expensive to purchase than ordinary robes. Dress robes were worn to the [[Funeral of Albus Dumbledore]].<ref name="HBP30">''[[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince]]'', Chapter 30 - (''The White Tomb'')</ref> Those who attended the [[Wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour]] also wore dress robes as they would have for any wizarding wedding, party, or other special event.

Harry said that the only real difference between dress robes and regular robes was the colour. Specifically, mens' dress robes can be compared to tuxedos and fancy suits, as they serve the same purpose, to be worn at highly formal events. Ladies' dress robes are for all intents and purposes equivalent to Muggle dresses or gowns.

"Everyone wears them, Ron! They're all like that! Your father's got some for smart parties!"
— Molly Weasley comments on dress robes[src]

Dress robes are a formal variety of robes worn by witches and wizards for special occasions, and can vary in style and colour as much as everyday robes. For the purposes of this page, "dress robes" also includes wizarding garments not necessarily robe-like in fashion, but worn at the same or similar events.

History

GOF HQ still Ron Harry looking at their dress robes

Harry Potter and Ron Weasley in their Yule Ball dress robes

During the 1994–1995 school year, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry hosted the Triwizard Tournament, which included the traditional Yule Ball in December.[3] For this occasion, students in the fourth year and above were required to bring dress robes in addition to their normal uniforms and equipment.[4]

Harry Potter's dress robes for the Ball — and the first set he ever owned — were cut in the same style as his school robes, but coloured green instead of black. By contrast, Ron Weasley's dress robes were cut more like a dress and accessorised with a lace collar.[4]

Members of the Slug Club apparently wore dress robes when they attended Horace Slughorn's Christmas party in December 1996. Luna Lovegood's robes for this occasion were "spangled silver" and apparently somewhat unconventional, as they attracted giggles from onlookers.[5]

The students and teachers of Hogwarts wore dress robes at the Funeral of Albus Dumbledore[6] and attendees of the Wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour donned them as well,[7] as they would have for any comparable party or special event.

Behind the scenes

  • In the films, the design of wizards' dress robes is based primarily on tuxedos and fancy suits, as they are worn at similarly formal events. Dress shirts, waistcoats, and neckties/bow ties are all components of these outfits. Witches' dress robes are for all intents and purposes equivalent to Muggle dresses or gowns. These can be full length – falling to the ankles – or only extend as far as the knees.
  • The dress robes portrayed in the films tend to have a lot more added decoration, including beading, embroidery, frills, and intricate patterns in the fabric. The robes may also possess features that reflect something about the person wearing them:

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (film)

  • Dumstrang students wear red, military-style tunics with brown trousers and tall black boots. Their outfits also have short, fur-lined capes, reflecting the heavy furs normally worn as part of their school uniforms.
  • Parvati and Padma Patil wear robes inspired by the sari,[11] a traditional Indian woman's dress.
