In Australia, court dress varies according to the jurisdiction.
In the High Court of Australia, justices wear plain black robes with zippered fronts over normal attire. They do not wear wigs, collars, bands or jabots.
The robes have seven horizontal tucks or “Ombres” on one side, representing the six Australian States and the territories. They also serve to symbolise Australia’s federal constitution and the federal jurisdiction of the Court. The robes also include a vertical band of black silk made up of seven equal parts, also symbolizing Australia’s federal system and equality before the law.
Judges and judicial registrars of the Family Court of Australia wear a black silk gown. Also a bar jacket with either bands or a jabot and a bench wig. On formal occasions, judges wear full-bottomed wigs.
On formal occasions, judges wear a red scarlet robe with white fur facings, bands or a jabot, a black scarf and girdle and a scarlet casting-hood, with a full-bottomed wig.
Unlike judges in the United Kingdom, judges in Australia never wear breeches, hose and buckled shoes.
When sitting in criminal proceedings, judges wear scarlet robes with grey silk facings, bands or a jabot and a bench wig.
When sitting in appeal or in civil proceedings, judges and masters wear a black silk gown, a bar jacket with either bands or a jabot and a bench wig.
