RhianynTheCat meowed: 
 
Sorry if I'm bringing up a topic that's alread been discussed, but 
does anyone else feel that Ron's preoccupation with appearances, 
with money (and the difference between his financial situation and 
Harry's) is foreshadowing to him being tempted in some way to 
unwittingly betray Harry?

P'raps Molly thought the robe looked fine.  P'raps it's what was 
fashionable in her time at Hogwarts.  I know my own mum was 
hopelessly caught in her own generation as far as fashion was 
concerned.  She'd've had me going to the prom in a beehive hairdo 
and yards of tulled with crinolines underneath.  And when Ron flared 
rudely at her, she flared right back ... they're all redheads, ya 
know :D
