Vivienne Westwood does graduation gowns

Filed under: News


What did your college or high school graduation gown look like? Was it black and plain, or a color? Or did you skip the ceremony to go have a beer? Okay, maybe that was just us, but those gowns are seriously unflattering, and we had no intention of wearing it around for a day and being photographed looking like we were wearing a garbage bag. No thank you.

Fortunately, for graduates of King's College in London, they will have something a little different -- graduation capes and hoods designed by Vivienne Westwood!

The fabulously quirky designer's new graduation range will have 20 different robes with a variety of colors, and each robe will have a King's College London lion on the shoulder. Students will be wearing them later this month for graduation, but before that, there will be a catwalk show on the college's Strand campus Great Hall. No pictures have been released yet, but don't worry, we'll let you know when they are.
