Indiana University Bloomington Commencement Central: Graduation Regalia & Accessories
Commencement at Indiana University Bloomington is more than a milestone—it is the embodiment of the Hoosier spirit. It’s the culmination of afternoons on Dunn Meadow, late nights in Wells Library, traditions at Sample Gates, and cheering on the Hoosiers at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. As you walk across the stage in your cap and gown, the lights of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall or Indiana University Memorial Stadium shining and the roar of your family and classmates filling the stadium, it is not just about receiving a degree—it is about stepping fully into the black and crimson red legacy that unites generations of Hoosiers.

Doctoral Regalia for Indiana University Bloomington
Doctoral graduates step into IUB’s most prestigious attire: tailored crepe black gowns accented with red piping, plush black velvet front panels, and three black velvet chevrons on each bell sleeve. The doctoral hood, lined in IUB’s signature colors of luminous red satin with a bold white chevron, is trimmed in blue velvet to denote the Ph.D. discipline. The ensemble is completed with an eight-sided black velvet tam, adjustable for fit, and a gold bullion tassel for an added touch of prestige. Each regalia set includes a garment bag and carrying case, supporting not just commencement but a lifetime of ceremonial use, from Hooding in Musical Arts Center to future convocations and commencements.
Why CAPGOWN Over the IU Bookstore?
Unlike the IU Bookstore, where regalia can be costly and take weeks to be delivered, CAPGOWN fulfills bachelor’s and doctoral regalia in just one business day—at about half the IU Bookstore price. Backed by thousands of verified 5-star reviews from Hoosiers nationwide, our regalia are praised for craftsmanship, comfort, and durability that last well beyond the ceremony. Each regalia set adheres to the strict standards of the Indiana University Bloomington commencement committee, making CAPGOWN the trusted alternative source of regalia for IUB grads. When you wear your regalia from CAPGOWN you can be sure that you will be amongst fellow Hoosiers who have had a photoshoot against Indiana University’s picturesque campus and walked across the graduation stage with family and friends cheering you on.
Hoosiers can also extend their milestone with diploma frames embossed with the Indiana University seal—the perfect way to showcase years of dedication. Many choose custom tote bags, alumni keepsakes, and memorabilia from Bloomington that carry the spirit of IU after commencement into their professional careers.
Each winter and spring Hoosiers ask the same questions on r/IndianaUniversity: “Where’s the best place to get my cap and gown?” or “Is there a cheaper, faster option than the IU Bookstore?” The answer is here. This page is your Commencement Central, built for Hoosiers and their families. At CAPGOWN, we don’t just provide regalia for Indiana University Bloomington—we help you wear your Hoosier achievement, carry your cream and crimson into the future, and walk out of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall or Indiana University Memorial Stadium not only as a graduate, but as a living legacy of Indiana University.
