Has anybody ever run across a pattern for contemporary Academic Hoods (snip)

This link takes you to an advertisement for a new little book on the
academic dress of Oxford University:-

http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2009/090403.html

There is a description of the development of the women's 'floppy hat',
a little about colours, and some useful photographs.  [If you haven't
time to read the page, at least scroll down to the end and enjoy the
photo of Daniel Barenboim in his regalia!]


Thanks!

Susan
