Custom-made ECU graduation gowns that meet ECU criteria

ECU Graduates Celebrating

Graduating from one of the top 100 Asia-Pacific Universities and one of the top 200 global young universities is no cakewalk. Getting a place is challenging enough, what to speak of meeting the stringent course completion criteria. No doubt you have worked hard, burnt the midnight oil to complete assignments, and used your research and critical thinking skills to complete your project. Edith Cowan University celebrates their success through your success – graduation day is a ceremonial rite of passage to call yourself ECU alumni. You deserve it!

Purchase your ECU graduation gown and relax on your big day

Academic dress hire is not just expensive; it is stressful too. You need to show up hours before the actual ceremony only to stand in long queues to collect your ECU graduation gown. You have to keep your gown pristine, or else pay extra fees for damage. This probably means you have to skip those champagne popping photos and watch your step throughout the occasion. And after the ceremony, you still can’t rest! You need to stand in long queues once again to make sure you return your rented ECU graduation gown on time.


Do you want your graduation day to revolve around your dress or you? If you purchase your ECU graduation gown from us, you can:

1. Get it home delivered well in time for graduation

2. Take unlimited photos – even stage a few at your favourite hangout before the crowds on big day

3. Enjoy the day and let any stains or marks become a part of the grand celebration

4. Relax after the ceremony to reminisce about the past, dream of the future, or spend more time with family – without the hassle of returns

ECU graduation gowns — common questions

What is included in a ECU graduation gown set?

A ECU graduation set from Gowning Street includes a graduation gown, a matching mortarboard (cap) with tassel, and the hood prescribed for your award. The gown is a traditional Cambridge-style, fully fluted academic gown cut from a premium-quality 230GSM polyester weave, and the mortarboard is made from polyester and wool felt with a rigid board, an elasticised fit and a tassel. A full ECU set including the hood is $105; gown-and-cap sets without a hood start from $85.

What size graduation gown and cap should I order for ECU?

Gowns are sized by your height: XS under 158cm, S 159-164cm, M 165-170cm, L 171-177cm and XL 178cm and over.

Mortarboards are sized by head circumference: XS under 46cm, S 47-50cm, M 51-54cm, L 55-59cm and XL over 59cm. If you fall between two sizes, order the larger one. Hoods are one size, so there is no hood measurement to take.

How long does delivery take for ECU graduation regalia?

Orders placed before 12 noon on a weekday leave our warehouse the same day; orders after that leave the next business day. Standard delivery then takes 3-7 business days and express delivery 2-3 business days for most Australian states, with longer transit times to outer regional areas. We ship Australia-wide through Australia Post, and we recommend leaving a buffer before your ceremony during peak graduation periods.

Is it cheaper to buy or hire ECU graduation regalia?

Buying is usually cheaper. Universities typically charge close to $150 to hire a graduation gown for a single ceremony, while a ECU set from Gowning Street starts from $85 — and you keep it afterwards instead of queueing to return it. You can save a further $10 per set when you buy with friends.

Can I return or exchange ECU graduation regalia?

All sales are final and we cannot accept returns for change of mind, because we are a retailer rather than a hire service. If an item arrives defective or incorrect through our error, tell us within 48 hours of receipt and we will replace it or refund it in full, including shipping. If you simply need a different size, submit the exchange form; an exchange costs $10 per item plus shipping, and items must be unworn and in their original packaging with the barcode attached. If you are unsure, contact us or call 1300 401 527 before ordering.
