Potioncat:
The plum velvet suit drove me crazy. You thought "gay" I 
thought "pimp." I couldn't decide if JKR was telling us something about 
Dumbledore with that outfit, or if it was an example of wizards not 
understanding how Muggles dress. Plum (DD), bottle green (Harry), and 
burgandy(Ron) seem normal colors for wizards. But WW clothing isn't 
very consistent in the books and the movies confused it even more.

But anyway, congrats on your correct DD prediction.
