Melanie, what did you use for your velvet trim?  I'm wondering about 
annabalizing my plastic robe for it .....
 

I had great ambition to make my own robe, but then didn't stay in academia.  
However, I bought lots of the stuff, including black velvet ribbon for the 
trim. I think that would be easier to manage than making your own strips from 
velvet or velveteen yardage.
