OK, AJ to the rescue again perhaps.

I made mine very inexpensively by getting fabric on sale and using 
iron-sealing tape (no sewing machine).

But you can have robes made to your specifications here:
$55  http://www.garbtheworld.com/items/g0026.shtml

Or get the new type of school robe here:

What!! It was working last night!  This has the House lining, etc. 
$150

Or wait for Alivans to start stocking the new types of robe, or get 
this old type back in stock in June:
$89 http://www.alivans.com/custom/edit.asp?p=89492

Or order a $15 graduation gown with no hood online.

To think I handmade everything on my original costume, no sewing 
machine-- even the tie-- now you can just click and get it all 
instantly online. >:)

For PERFECT, BEAUTIFUL Hogwarts patches, use www.patchpalace.com -- 
they also sell on ebay.

to prepare for the movie or next book opening, or conventions, and 
we'll all enhance each others' costumes in public... :D  )

p.s. I and my friend and family also have assorted colors of lizards, 
domestic rats, and Crookshanks lookalike, great costume enhancers if 
they like to pose for a photo!
