Hogwarts uniform

From Harry Potter Wiki

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the uniform required to wear for study at this school.

The Hogwarts Uniform was the clothing that students attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry were required to wear during all of their lessons, whilst eating (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and studying in their spare time in the Great Hall. Students are allowed to wear their own clothes after their lessons for the day have finished and are allowed to wear non-uniform in their common rooms, dormitories and around the school-grounds. However, most students chose to stay in their school uniform after lessons as they would be required to change into their pyjamas for the evening that was not to soon after lessons had ended for the day.
