Question

How can I dress like a female Hogwarts student?

Community Answer

Get the white button up shirt, the vest (with colors according to your house), the robes, the tie, and the hat. The only difference is females have knee-length skirts and long gray socks with black dress shoes. Look up on Google for reference images!

What can I wear if I don't have a sweater vest?

If you don’t own a sweater vest, you can buy one online. If you can’t afford or aren’t able to at the moment, you’ll be fine without one.

Question

We can't find a robe in stores. What else can I use for a Hogwarts student costume?

Community Answer

You can just wear the sweater and pants/skirt. A robe is not completely necessary. Just make sure to wear a tie to show your house pride. If you don't mind ordering something online, Amazon carries the robe.

Question

How do I dress like a Gryffinpuff?

Community Answer

You could maybe wear Gryffindor robes and a Hufflepuff tie (or the other way around). Or maybe wear the full Gryffindor set one day and Hufflepuff the next.
