ROBES OF THE BRITISH PEERAGE.
Peerage Robes are worn in the United Kingdom by Peers and are of two varieties for two occasions: Parliament Robes, worn on ceremonial occasions in the House of Lords, and Coronation Robes, worn at Coronations of Monarchs.
Peers wear a Robe differentiated by features identifying their Rank.
Since at least the Early Middle Ages, Robes have been worn as a sign of Nobility. At first, these seem to have been bestowed on individuals by the Monarch or Feudal Lord as a sign of special recognition; but, in the 15th-Century, the use of Robes became formalised, with Peers all wearing Robes of the same design, though varied according to the Rank of the wearer.[1]

Coronets are worn with the Coronation Robe; the Robes and Coronets used at Queen Elizabeth II’s Coronation in 1953 cost about £1,250[2] (roughly £46,000 in 2026).[3] (Peers under the Rank of an Earl, however, were allowed in 1953 to wear a cheaper “Cap of Estate” in place of a Coronet, as were Peeresses of the same Rank, for whom a simpler Robe was also permitted: A one-piece Gown with wrap-around Fur Cape, designed by Norman Hartnell.)[1]
