College Fashion · since 2007

From graduation to high office

Since 2007 we have dressed the academic world: the graduate on the biggest day of her life – and the office holders whose robes outlast decades. Over 170 universities across Germany and Europe trust us.

Graduation ceremony in a concert hall: a whole cohort in black gowns throws their caps into the air, degree certificates in hand.
Who we are

One house, two answers

A graduate needs something different from a court president. That is why we give two answers instead of half of one – under the roof of EXTRA Group GmbH in Landshut.

The collection · in stock

Caps and gowns, sashes and hoods, honour cords and certificate scrolls – designed in Bavaria, held in stock, in the sizes and colours a whole cohort needs. Anyone who needs four hundred gowns in July gets them in July.

Manufaktur Bavaria

Made to measure · Landshut

Robes made to measure, tailored in our workshop in Landshut, from €1,000. This is where the robes are made that outlast a term of office: Manufaktur Bavaria is the official robe supplier to the Unified Patent Court of the EU and dresses Harvard, the Federal Court of Justice and the Federal Constitutional Court, among others.

What connects the two is the knowledge of fabric and the standard we hold – not the workshop. The collection is made for us, the ceremonial robe by us. Keeping those two apart is precisely what allows us to be honest at both ends.

“For us it is one ceremony among many; for the graduate it is the only one. And afterwards the gown does not hang in the wardrobe — it hangs in the photograph on the wall. That is our benchmark.”
