Important Details:

  • Don’t wait until the last minute! You are encouraged to purchase and pick up your regalia during the first week of the Pop-Up Shop. As Commencement approaches, we will likely start running out of some of the sizing ranges and cannot guarantee we will have your height range in stock. Cap and gown regalia come bundled together and cannot be sold separately.
  • Please DO NOT iron your gown as it will damage the gown, and you will have to purchase another package. To get out any wrinkles you can use a steamer or hang up the gown in your bathroom before taking a hot shower so the steam can release the wrinkles.
  • Exchanges can only be made for gowns that were purchased in their accurate height range. If you buy a gown outside your height range, we may not be able to exchange it later.
  • All sales are final. There are no refunds, and any exchanges need to take place before May 28 and with the original receipt.
