Academic robes are extravagant fantasies

complicated pleats
dramatic colours
gold braid
and tassels
but the smiles come as standard.

Welcome to ChezMagpie!
I can't promise pearls of wisdom
or a guide to self-improvement
but this is our life
as we live it.

Lovely...
Indeed, those are lovely photos.
Are the people yours?
N.
These photos are beautiful! You know, I've had my own, stood next to others wearing theirs, but I've never really looked at academic gowns before, not like you did.
Thanks for opening my eyes,
best

Thank you - I am not used to asking people if I may take their photos and so I was rather flustered which is why the flash went off in the first making it shiny. I was also too nervous to ask for a pic of the grandest robes!
