Yeah, Harry looks great ... the tux does kind of surprise me and sort of doesn't seem .. fair somehow. Not sure if fair is the word I want but ... in the books his dress robes are much nicer than Ron's obviously but ... a tux?? It seems over the top.
I actually visualized Ron's robes being kind of like that when I read the book, though I'm getting the impression I'm one of the few people who did from my friends list.
Harry's not wearing a tux, that's "white tie" -- the utmost in men's formal evening dress! For a tuxedo he'd have a black tie and no vest, with a short jacket. White tie goes with a long coat ("tails"), so it will look just fine with robes.
This is what I get for hanging out with professional musicians for so long :-)
Well, from what I can see in this photo, Harry's coat looks reasonably full - as though it could be long and cloak-ish. And I really want them all in dress-like costumes.
I'm just a tad concerned that poor Ron will be the only one relegated to wearing a 'dress'. For it's comedy value.
Dare I say Ron's robes look like cast offs from the 70s!! LOL! (which would be kind of appropriate, but I suspect not deliberate)
And I'm a wee bit disappointed that Harrry's suit is not dark green. But not surprised.
Thanks for the white tie/black tie info though! ;~)
I have washing to hang out and gingerbread houses to build! I did finish a gift Malfoy pic this morning tho, so that's something. I still have post it though, and I can't tear myself away from the fandom!!

Those Robes are even worse than I imagined!
And, I'll admit I'm a little surprised with the 'tux' on Harry. I wonder if they'll be wearing 'robes' or pants?
*wants to see pic full length* ;~P
