It wouldn't be nearly as bad if that robe weren't so damned  UGLY. The robes 
they dressed Richard Harris in were resplendent and  beautiful, just like 
they 
were described in the books; then along comes  Michael Gambon and they put 
him in what looks like a 50 year old housecoat.  I hate the damned hat they 
have 
him wearing too. But, IMO, all of the  costumes, after the first two movies, 
went in the toilet. I want to see  wizard clothing, and plenty of it, 
including 
the kids wearing their Hogwarts  robes. I wear my robe more than the kids in 
the movies  do.

You are not the only one who feels that way. Gambon's Dumbledore even  sleeps 
in the same blankety-blank robes. I was so delighted with the costumes,  
especially Dumbledore's robe and nightcap, in the earlier movies. 
 
If the teacher's robes had to go all dark, sad, and boring, it should have  
been AFTER GOF when they had reasons to mourn. But I can find no excuse for  
Flitwick's haircut!
