Celebrate the culmination of your academic journey with the Deluxe Doctoral Tam, Gown & Hood Graduation Package, a premium, all-inclusive regalia set designed for doctoral graduates who expect exceptional quality, tradition, and professional presentation.

Doctoral regalia represents the highest level of scholarly achievement. This deluxe package provides everything required to present a polished, authoritative appearance at commencement, academic processions, and formal university events.

Complete Deluxe Doctoral Regalia Set

This package includes three essential components of doctoral academic dress:

  • Deluxe Doctoral Gown as on the picture (you can change the piping color, add school emblem and add 4th chevron)

  • Velvet Doctoral Tam (Cap) 

  • Doctoral Hood - Customize your own

Together, these pieces create a coordinated doctoral ensemble that meets traditional academic standards for PhD and other terminal degrees.

Deluxe Doctoral Gown – Premium Construction & Formal Drape

The doctoral gown is crafted from high-quality, matte-finish fabric designed for superior drape, durability, and long-term use. Deluxe-level features include:

  • Full fluted shoulders and yoke for a distinguished silhouette

  • Broad, bell-style sleeves appropriate for doctoral regalia

  • Tailored cut for professional stage presence

  • Crease-resistant fabric that photographs cleanly

This gown clearly distinguishes doctoral recipients from bachelor’s and master’s graduates, reflecting the prestige and authority of advanced academic achievement.

Velvet Doctoral Tam 

The included doctoral tam is the traditional cap worn by PhD and doctorate-level graduates. Constructed from plush velvet, it replaces the mortarboard used at lower degree levels and adds a refined, scholarly finish to your regalia. The tam is designed to sit securely and comfortably throughout extended ceremonies.

Doctoral Hood – Symbol of Discipline & Institution

The doctoral hood completes the ensemble by representing both your academic discipline and institutional identity. Designed to doctoral length and proportions, the hood drapes properly across the shoulders and down the back, attaching securely to the gown to maintain correct positioning during the ceremony.

Built for Ceremony Comfort & Long-Term Use

Doctoral ceremonies often involve lengthy processions, stage time, and professional photography. This deluxe package is designed to deliver:

  • Comfortable wear for extended periods

  • Proper movement without sacrificing structure

  • A refined, professional appearance from start to finish

With durable materials and classic styling, this regalia set is suitable for future academic events, faculty roles, convocations, or preservation as a meaningful keepsake.

Can you help me with a mockup of the custom stole/gown/diploma cover I want to order?

Email us the information of what you are looking to order and we can create a mockup for you.

Do these packages meet standard graduation requirements?

Yes. Our graduation’s regalia sets are designed to follow the widely accepted academic dress guidelines used by U.S. colleges and universities. They are ceremony-ready and appropriate for hooding ceremonies, commencement walks, faculty convocation, and other official events.

Do you offer different sizes for caps/tams/ beefeaters? Are they adjustable? What are they made of?

Our caps are made of 100% polyester. 

We provide caps in two sizes: Adult and Child.

They measure 9"x9".

The caps are not adjustable.

How do I know what gown's color to choose?

Please contact your educational institution, as we currently do not have access to school colors.

How to select my Graduation gown size?

You need to provide us with each customer's height with shoes on for the gown and weight. You do not need to provide cap size as our standard caps are one size fits all with elastic. Cap and gown sets come in a range of sizes. Refer to the size chart on the product page to select the best fit based on height and weight. Please see the our size chart

I don’t see the color I need. Do you provide any that aren’t listed?

You can email us the color that you need, we will get back to you with a closed match. 

We can color match some products if a bulk order is placed.

The color does not match my university regalia?

We do not color match. We have a very specific set of fabrics. We cannot guarantee that our fabric colors will match with another supplier’s fabrics.

What does piping mean for the gown/hood?

Piping is an embroidered thread around the velvet of a gown or hood.

What is beefeater?

A beefeater, also referred to as a Tudor Bonnet, is a premium hat usually reserved for esteemed officials overseeing graduation ceremonies (deans, presidents, etc...). The standard mortarboard, a square of cardboard encased in polyester, is worn atop the head and traditionally used for primary and secondary school graduations. In contrast, tams are more commonly chosen for advanced graduations like Ed.S and doctoral ceremonies, and occasionally for master's degrees.

What is the difference between 4, 6 or 8 sided tam?

The level of education attained by the wearer is indicated by the varying number of sides on a tam. Master's graduates commonly wear four or six-sided tams, with the specific choice often determined by the school. It's advisable to verify the appropriate tam style before making a purchase. Tams with six sides are suitable for programs like Ed.S (education specialist) that fall between Master's and Ph.D. Eight-sided tams are typically reserved for Doctoral programs.

What is the difference between the Deluxe and the classic/matte gown?

Our Deluxe gowns have fluting around the shoulders and yoke. They have more fabric used so they tend to be heavier. This is true for all of our deluxe gowns. 

The deluxe master has a different shape for the batwings. 

The deluxe doctor has bell sleeves and a braided button to attach the hood whereas the classic does not.

We cannot do an embroidered chest emblem on the classic doctor. 

Overall, the deluxe is considered a higher quality gown for your regalia.

What is the material of your gowns? Washing Instructions?

Our gowns are all made of 100% polyester. Purely made polyester, like our products, is extremely strong, extremely durable and has excellent properties such as being hydrophobic in nature that leads to quick-drying and stain resistance.

We recommend dry cleaning for all of our products in order to keep the integrity of the garment. However, our products can be washed in a machine using the gentle cycle or handwashed. For drying, please hang dry. The material can be ironed on a low setting.
