Abstract

[Extract] The question of what lawyers wear is in the news again since the Family Court of Australia has announced that judges have new robes, it will dispense with wigs, and there is a new dress code for lawyers appearing before it. The Family Court changes caused me to think again about the reason behind court dress – and others too, as evidenced by an animated discussion on Twitter following the Court's announcement.
