Greetings! This blog covers the adventures of a seamstress making her own academic robe! http://sewingtodistraction.blogspot.com/search/label/academic%20regalia
I love that blog!
While I was fishing around the internet looking for the aforementioned blog, I found this link which appears to have more information about academic regalia than I had imagined existed. http://www.burgon.org.uk/design/makers/index.php FWIW, my experience with wearing a wool academic gown in June in humid New York, was that it was actually ok and definitely better than any synthetic.
Thanks! I hadn't seen the second site before.
