Step onto the stage with confidence, style and the respect your Master’s degree deserves. The Deluxe Master’s Academic Cap, Gown & Hood Package from Gradshop brings together premium components that reflect both tradition and quality — built for your milestone moment and years beyond.

Complete Premium Regalia Set for Master’s Graduation
This all-in-one package includes:

  • A premium matte-black mortarboard cap (one size fits most)

  • A tailored master’s gown in matte black featuring extended oblong sleeves, hidden-zipper closure and refined pleating

  • A discipline-specific master’s hood with velvet trim and satin lining in your institution’s colors

  • A quality tassel with year charm to complete the ensemble

Premium Fabric & Tailored Construction
The gown and hood are crafted from high-grade matte-finish material that presents a dignified, professional appearance aligned with formal commencement standards. Key design highlights include tailored shoulder and yoke fluting, dress-style pleats, strong stitching and durable zipper closure — all ensuring a crisp, polished silhouette.

True Master’s Regalia Features & Styling
Unlike standard Bachelor’s gowns, the master’s gown in this set includes the formal oblong extended sleeves with wrist openings and the larger, draped hood that symbolizes your advanced degree. The hood’s color-coded velvet trim indicates your field of study, while the satin lining reflects your institution’s colors — together creating a meaningful visual representation of your discipline.

Comfort, Photogenic Finish & Keepsake Quality
Graduation day is long: from procession to stage to photo op and celebration. This set is engineered to perform — the matte finish reduces glare in photos, the fabric resists visible creases, and the tailored design ensures you look sharp from start to finish. Beyond one day, this regalia set serves as a keepsake you can reuse for future academic appearances or hang proudly as a symbol of your achievement.

Styling Tip:
For the full academic look: pair this set with your mortarboard cap (included), the tassel with your graduation year, and optionally add honor cords or stoles to mark academic distinctions. The gown lays the foundation, the hood personalizes your discipline and school colors, and the cap/tassel completes the formal ensemble.

Can I customize my master's gown?

Yes. Deluxe master's gowns are available in custom colors and with embroidery, with no minimum order. Please email us what you're looking for and we'll send you a quote.

Do I need a hood for my master's graduation?

Many master's ceremonies include one, but not all. Your school's graduation page or bookstore should confirm this.

Do master's graduates wear a different cap?

Master's graduates usually wear a square mortarboard, and some schools use a tam. Ours measures 9 by 9 inches, comes in matte or shiny, and is one size fits all.

Do you offer plus sizes for master's gowns?

Yes. We offer regular and full-fit sizes, with plus sizes in 45, 48, 54, 57 and 63. Please see our size chart for details.

How do I choose my master's hood colors?

The velvet shows your field of study, and the lining and chevron show your school colors. The hood shell is always black. Colors can change, so please confirm yours with your school. Choose colors based on your highest degree or the school you're attending now.

How do I select my hood's colors?

There is no standardized and unified published listing available of all current school colors.

While GraduationAttire does maintain a color chart for degree velvet colors there is no true substitute for contacting your school directly and asking them what colors they are currently using for your graduation apparel. Schools can and sometimes do change their colors on a yearly basis (and even the color of the gown itself).

The lining and chevron (satin fabric) represent your school colors. The shell is the material of hood which is always black (polyester fabric, matte finish). The velvet color represents your specific degree or field of study.

Please note for Associate Degree, you only need to select the lining and chevron colors (no velvet color required). 

You always need to choose the colors based on your highest level of education or current school you are attending.

How do I wear my hood?

Place the hood over your head so it drapes over your shoulders and down your back, with the velvet edge on the outside. Turn the velvet out just below your shoulders so the lining shows from the back, then smooth the shell flat against your gown. Faculty hoods also have a back cord with two buttons and a front cord that fastens to a shirt or dress button.

How far ahead should I order?

As early as you can, especially for custom items. In-stock items ship within 1-4 business days, and custom items and packages with a hood take about 2-3 weeks. Standard shipping then takes around 5-8 business days, and expedited and overnight shipping are also available. We can't guarantee a delivery date.

How is a master’s gown different from a bachelor’s gown?

A master's gown has long, oblong sleeves with openings for your arms, while a bachelor's gown has pointed sleeves.

How much is a master's cap and gown, and what's included?

Our Classic set is $57.90 and our Deluxe set is $74.90. Each includes a master's gown, a matching cap and a tassel with a year charm. With a hood, Classic and Deluxe packages are $107.85 and $124.85.

How do I choose my gown size?

Use our size chart to find your size based on your height with shoes on and your weight. You don't need a cap size because our standard caps are one size fits all, with elastic.

Can you match my school's colors?

We can color match for large school orders. For individual orders, we can't guarantee our colors will match another supplier's. If you don't see the color you need, please email us and we'll suggest the closest match.

What does piping mean?

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

What if my school orders from a different company?

You're welcome to order from us, but we can't guarantee our gowns will match another company's because shades vary between suppliers. Please check your school's rules first.

What is the difference between the Deluxe and Classic master's gowns?

The Deluxe gown has fluting around the shoulders and yoke and a different shape for its oblong (batwing) sleeves. It uses more fabric, so it tends to be a little heavier, and it's considered our higher-quality gown.

What is the significance of the hood color and design?

The hood’s velvet trim color represents your academic discipline (e.g., Education, Science, Business), while the satin lining reflects your institution’s school colors. This tradition dates back to the standardized academic dress codes used across U.S. colleges and universities.

You can check if your country is available by simulating placing an order on our website. We can also place the order over the phone if you do not find your country. However because such shipments often involve the peculiarities of the various tariffs trade and import/export laws around the globe we may not be able to ship some orders overseas due to the cost of researching the laws for that location. Also if possible it is always easier for us to ship to a US-based shipping address and you will always save on shipping costs if you can arrange for a US-based address to receive the shipment. At this time due to advice from our bank concerning trends in fraud we reserve all rights to deny or proceed with orders shipping internationally.
