That wasn't me, but I did make my own robes.  The modern master's robes are 
based on 16th-century loose gowns with hanging sleeves, so that's what I made 
(along with a cloth flat cap).  My area of study is 16th-century clothing, so 
it seemed appropriate, and people always compliment me on it at graduation.  
I'm a professor, so I get to wear it once or twice a year.  I don't have any 
photos that I can post, unfortunately.
