I have seen the movie, so I can definitely picture them wearing 
robes.  That's not a problem, but I wanted to know what *dress* robes 
look like.  So are these dress robes for boys? What about the girls?  
I picture the girls wearing medieval gowns as their robes.  You know 
like the way Liv Tyler and Cate Blanchett dress in LOTR. :D
