Higher Doctoral Degree

Higher Doctoral Gowns - Scarlet

• Scarlet gowns are worn by recipients of Higher Doctorial Degrees e.g. Doctor of Science, Doctor of Literature, Doctor of Commerce, Doctor of Fine Arts and Doctor of Music. They are identical to master gowns except that they are all red in colour. They have a closed or pocket sleeve.
• They are a generous fit and should suit most people.
• Gowns are sized according to your full height and should be worn at mid-calf length.
• The size you select is a guide only as every customer is given an opportunity for a personal fitting when collecting regalia.

Master Hood

Master Hoods are worn by recipients of Master degrees. They are the shape of a Cambridge BA hood.

• Masters hoods do not have any trim inside the mouth of the hood. This indicates the status of the degree as the Bachelors have a fur trim and the Bachelor Honours hoods have a white ribbon trim.
• The lining colour indicates the area of study

• Bonnets are worn by all doctors.
• They are soft-topped and made of black velvet.
• They have a circular brim and are trimmed with black cords and tassels.
• The Bonnet should sit comfortably with the circular brim sitting horizontally straight across.
• The black tassel is worn to the left.

• Please measure your head circumference just above your eyebrows and straight round the back.
• Use a piece of string and a ruler if you do not have a measuring tape.
