Robe and Wizard Hat | comment |
Magic users, especially in medieval fantasy, will almost always wear robes of one sort or another. The particular type of robe varies, and even those mages who eschew the robe tend to wear cloaks, capes, or (for more modern characters) trenchcoats. At least in part, this seems to be because the loose, billowy clothes look that much more impressive during a magic-induced Chunky Updraft or Dramatic Wind. Even the Stripperiffic costumes worn by the Vain Sorceress tend to have a few loose scraps of cloth fluttering about. On the more practical side, robes' light weight rarely hinders any necessary magic gestures like heavy armor would. On the other hand, nobody who wears a pointy hat can be anything but a magician of some kind. No matter what, the pointy hat is a guarantee of magical power, or at least aspirations thereto. (The primary exception is if you're in the Deep South. They may have an "Imperial Wizard" leading them, but that's a way different group there.) Depending on the setting, exceptions may be made if you are a princess locked in a tower (this version usually has a ribbon of sheer fabric coming off of the top and is technically called a Steeple Hennin), some manner of gnome (this version is usually red, and gnomes are generally magical) or of course, the classic Dunce Cap, but in such a case, a magic-user can be identified by the fact that their pointy hat has a brim, while the hats of princesses, gnomes and dunces do not. If it's your head that's pointed, you're reading the wrong trope; see Coneheads. Wizarding School students tend to wear a blend of this and whatever is considered that country's traditional school uniform; expect the more powerful teachers to do it straight. The lesson you should be taking from all of this, of course, is that if you see someone wearing a pointy hat, then they will also be wearing a robe. This trope is a subtrope of Badass Long Robe, naturally. If the hat itself ends up being magical than it may be a Hat of Power. Very often this trope is accompanied by a Magic Staff. Sub-trope of Stock Costume Traits. See also Wizard Classic and Witch Classic for character types who are especially prone to wearing this outfit. Members of the Trenchcoat Brigade are usually going for a contemporary, Urban Fantasy relative of this trope. It's often believed that the trope comes from the Norse god Odin's traveling outfit. A Sister Trope to Mystical High Collar. P.S: If you were wondering, this trope name comes from a famous (in the right circles) internet chat that starts as cybersex, takes a nerdy turn into tabletop/MMORPG-style games and gets weirder from there. (Warning: NSFW). |

In the Magic 2.0 series, wizards in Medieval England wear these partly due to expectations and party due to it being a requirement for the Shell to recognize them as a user, thus allowing them to execute macros/spells with gestures and/or words. There are even specific requirements for the measurements. Another requirement is a Magic Staff or a Magic Wand. In the third novel, it's revealed that some of these restrictions have been removed. | |

Sleepless Domain: Rue Bahia puts a more modern, punk-inpired spin on the Cute Witch look for her magical girl outfit.

Dragon Age: In Dragon Age: Origins, mages (with the exception of Arcane Warriors) are restricted to wearing robes not just because of class and stat restrictions (warrior armor has strength requirements, rogue armor has strength/dexterity requirements), but because wearing armor increases the wearer's fatigue, causing them to run out of mana/stamina more quickly, which is a liability for mages. Dragon Age II eschews the fatigue mechanism but still has class and stat restrictions on armor. There aren't any classic pointy wizard hats in either game, but the mage hats actually in the games are...interesting. (The silliness of the mage hats are a running joke in the fandom.) Dragon Age: Inquisition features helmets with no class restrictions (apart from qunari characters), resulting in parties where mages may be running around in full-metal, enclosed helmets while simultaneously restricted to light armor robes. However, Vivienne's default helmet is a hennin. |

Might and Magic mostly averts it for the game characters (as even the most Squishy Wizard get to wear leather armor, there is absolutely no penalty for wearing a helmet or other supposedly heavy headgear, and there are, in fact, no equippable robes to be found), but plays it straight for many mage NPCs and enemies. VI's description for the one sort of pointy hat in the game handwaves its popularity amongst mages as a result of the 'conical shape attracting creatures of the spirit world', making the hat easier to enchant. Even so, it is not the best cloth-headgear to enchant. | |

Male mages in most Fire Emblem games wear this, although the robe is more like a tunic, and they usually take off the hat upon promotion to Sage. In Fire Emblem: Awakening Miriel and Laurent both start out looking like this, and actually keep the hat no matter which class they change to. | |

Sorcerers in the Lord Darcy Verse dispense with the symbol-marked pointy hat, instead carrying sigil-decorated carpetbags filled with ritual supplies and equipment. Robes are the pale blue of the Sorcerers' Guild, with white trim designating Apprentice, Journeyman, or Master status. Note that quite a lot of Angevin magic-users are members of the clergy, so wear ecclesiastical robes rather than Guild blue. | |

Belgarath the Sorcerer of David Eddings' The Belgariad notably avoids such things whenever possible, choosing instead to wear comfortable clothes that allow him to blend in. However, in those rare instances where he had to make a public appearance as "The Almighty, Immortal Sorcerer, Belgarath!", he dons a white robe and staff to make sure everybody knows he's a wizard. (Keep in mind, the only people who've ever managed to get him to actually do that, is his busybody daughter, Polgara — and the combined might of roughly a dozen reigning monarchs.) | |

Dark Souls: The Cute Witch Action Girl Beatrice wear this kind of outfit, even against big nasty monsters. Later, you can get the set from her present-day remains. Big Hat Logan also fits this. Justified, since he specifically designed the hat so that people couldn't stare at his face, and the wrap around his head was meant to muffle the insufferable dronings of his students. You can get his hat as well after he goes insane and you are forced to kill him. Dark Souls II has the Black Witch set and the Astrologist's set for those who like a bit more bling in their outfits. Averted with other spellcasting outfits, however; the Leydia Black set looks like someone put a bomb in the end of a pointy hat and exploded it, the black and white Hollow Mage sets wear fancy hoods, and the Lion Mage and Desert Sorceress sets don't have enough clothing to qualify as robes; the Desert Sorceress top in particular barely has enough clothing to qualify as clothing. The third game has Karla, whose getup is what you'd imagine a Cute Witch to look like after who knows how long of imprisonment. |

Guild Wars is one MMORPG that manages to avoid this trope. The armor for spellcaster professions are usually coats and trousers, with occasional skirts or Badass Longcoats. There aren't any hats, but each profession does have distinctive headwear - theater masks for mesmers, scalp tattoos for monks, head wrappings for ritualists, etc. | |

In the Dungeon Keeper series, Wizard units are identified by their ankle-length blue robe and conical hat, long white beard, and gem-tipped staff. Their Evil Counterparts the Warlocks also have the robe and staff, although in purple with a High Collar of Doom, skullcap, and Beard of Evil. Oddly, both have detached sleeves. | |

Wizarding casual dress in the Harry Potter series appears to be... you guessed it... a Robe And Wizard Hat. Thanks to ethnocentrism, most wizards unknowingly dress in such horribly inappropriate Muggle clothing whenever they need to venture outside the wizarding world that they'd probably draw less attention by sticking to their wizard robes. A very funny exchange in Goblet of Fire, for instance, involves an old man who has trouble differentiating between male Muggle public wear and female Muggle evening garb. | |

The Dresden Files informs us that the reason for the robes is that wizards' lairs get cold in the winter, and Wizards short out electronics in heating units. They're also the required formal wear at White Council meetings, although those have specific meanings and a uniform aspect to them. It's also likely they've had that policy for a thousand years, given how long wizards live. Harry Dresden himself subverts this by trading in a robe and wizard hat for a Badass Longcoat. He doesn't actually wear a hat. The cover artist seems to want to spite the author's intent. Harry also subverts it by wearing a baby blue bathrobe to a Council meeting, because he's a smartass and flat broke. Possible further justification: Harry's Badass Longcoat is enchanted with magic-, fire-, and bullet-resistant enchantments, which are supposedly difficult to get right, and he mostly wears it for protection — why magic-up several sets of shirts and pants when you can just throw a robe over it for throat-to-shoes protection that rarely needs dry-cleaning. Of course, when a particularly hot summer hits Chicago, he ends up debating whether the protection is worth the heat. | |

In Oblivion, and to a lesser extent Skyrim, there are spell efficiency penalties for wearing armor, essentially enforcing this trope. For those role-playing as casters (or any spell-heavy type of class) this reduces desirable outfits to robe & hood or regular civilian style clothes. Usually enchanted. (See also: Armor and Magic Don't Mix for a more extensive explanation.) Interestingly, the only non-armor wrist items for in Oblivion are the Wrist Irons you start the game with. All other items count as armor and lower the spell efficiency. They are the only pair in the vanilla game, though more can be found with the Shivering Isles expansion. | |

Third Time Lucky: And Other Stories of the Most Powerful Wizard in the World: The fact that wizards usually wear robes, and hats sometimes, is well known in this world. People repeatedly express astonishment because Magdelene, who's a wizard, doesn't wear them (she finds wearing a robe silly). She even gets chastised by other wizards over the lack of proper wizard attire, not that she's concerned with what they think. | |

The Discworld likes this trope. A lot. Rincewind has covered most of the Disc, usually at speed, and is prepared to leave almost anything behind to make a quick getaway, but the idea of being Rincewind without a pointy hat just breaks his brain. He needs it, because being a wizard (regardless of his near-total inability to use magic) is a central part of his self-identity. Night Watch Discworld: Downplayed when Archchancellor Ridcully's bath moves itself outside while he's bathing. He calls for his hat, but doesn't think of the robe yet: This is a call-back to a similar incident in The Last Continent: The rest of the faculty were mildly scandalized by Archchancellor Ridcully's preference for baggy suits over robes when he first arrived at UU. According to Granny Weatherwax, most of witchcraft is "headology" (i.e. folk-psychology). This only works if everyone knows you're a witch, hence the black cloak and pointy hat. This results in Granny having to actually try to intimidate someone when she goes to a location where people can't recognize a witch on sight. Also worth noting: in theory, anyone can wear a pointy hat. But in practice, imagine what happens to such charlatans when they meet a person with the RIGHT to wear one. In Hogfather, a Wizard's idea of going incognito (so people don't recognize that he is a wizard) is to wear a darker, less fancy pointy hat. And of course, the Dean, who gets... very gung-ho about whatever new idea has caught the wizards' fancy this time, has occasionally been spotted with pointy hair. The pointy bath-cap mentioned in Live Action Film above is taken directly from the book as well, although considering the Archchancellor was trying out a bathroom designed and installed by "Bloody Stupid" Johnson he might have been better off with a pointy crash helmet. It's been noted in the Discworld series that pointy hats are pretty much hardwired into being a wizard, along with (at the very least,) deep seated distrust and dislike of other wizards, and a desire to build a tower. Also in The Last Continent, the wizards of Bugrup College in Fourecks put their own spin on it; their hats are more brim than point (and may have corks around the brim) and they wear short robes over long shorts. |

Elden Ring: In several flavors, often continuing Fromsoft's tradition of comically oversized wizard hats. Alberich's Set is black with gold trim, inlaid with red glintstones. The Preceptor's Set is blue, with a black outer robe. It also comes with a mask depicting a face with the mouth sewn shut, worn to symbolize the preceptors' vows of keeping Carian secrets. The Snow Witch set does it in white and light blue. Renalla has a unique crescent-shaped pointy hat without a brim (the Queen's Crescent Crown) to go along with her fancy robe. Downplayed by Sorcerer Rogier, whose Spellblade Set comes with the big pointy hat, but not the robe, the Raya Lucaria Scholars, who wear the robe part but instead of pointy hats, they wear big stone masks filled with glintstones, and astrologers, who wear hooded robes. Sir Gideon Ofnir averts the trope; despite relying mostly on magic in combat, he wears a set of decorative armor covered in sculpted eyes and ears to go with his title "The All-Knowing." |

Asheron's Call also avoids this trope, as almost any character can wear almost any armor or clothing, and spellcasting is not penalized by equipment. However, for the first few years of the game, there was a loud group of players who complained that their mage characters were forced to wear armor because robes didn't provide enough protection and that they couldn't dress like typical mages. | |

Though the party wizard doesn't wear a hat, Elan of The Order of the Stick puts one on when he's considering multiclassing to wizard. And while they don't wear hats, pretty much any wizard, sorcerer, or druid in the series wears robes, including Xykon, Vaarsuvius, and Roy's Dad. A couple side characters do wear hats as well, such as the Oracle, and the Azure City teleporting wizard. | |

Averted with other spellcasting outfits, however; the Leydia Black set looks like someone put a bomb in the end of a pointy hat and exploded it, the black and white Hollow Mage sets wear fancy hoods, and the Lion Mage and Desert Sorceress sets don't have enough clothing to qualify as robes; the Desert Sorceress top in particular barely has enough clothing to qualify as clothing. | |

Warframe, of all things, gets in on the act with Limbo. While normally themed after a Stage Magician, unlocking the Aristeas Helmet allows Limbo to have a more pointy piece of headgear. Add one of guns that shoot Fireballs or Chain Lightning, and Limbo's own exclusive dimension-hopping gimmick, and he's by far the most wizardly of the cast. | |

In Dragon Age: Origins, mages (with the exception of Arcane Warriors) are restricted to wearing robes not just because of class and stat restrictions (warrior armor has strength requirements, rogue armor has strength/dexterity requirements), but because wearing armor increases the wearer's fatigue, causing them to run out of mana/stamina more quickly, which is a liability for mages. | |

Witch Hat Atelier: As expected from the title, this trope is addressed and justified: a tall, conical hat is a witch’s badge of office, making them immediately recognizable even though every atelier has its own style of hat, while the flowing robes mask and direct attention away from their hands when they do magic, concealing from the Unknowing that magic is as simple as drawing diagrams in the right kind of ink (magic is not an inherent trait, but something anyone can do with the right tools and knowledge — something that witches are keen on keeping secret, for fear of misuse). Meanwhile, the renegade witches known as Brimhats are distinguished by the fact that their hats have wide brims, allowing them to hide their faces and avoid being identified, whether by others or each other. | |

As described in the literature section, the wizards in the Harry Potter books wear this as their normal clothes. However, the films put Harry and company in a modern school uniform topped with an academic gown. All of the adults wear Edwardian/Victorian-inspired couture. The first film does feature all of the students wearing brimless pointed hats for the start- and end-of-year feast (mostly so we can have the triumphant cass-topping scene when Gryffindor wins the House Cup) but they're never worn again in any of the later movies, not even on special occasions. According to director Chris Columbus, they tried using costumes closer to what’s described in the books, test audiences and further market research have found that general audiences find them silly-looking. The only character to be often shown wearing a traditional wizard's hat (tall and pointy with a wide brim) is Professor McGonagall — in fact, she's rarely seen without it. Dumbledore often sports headwear as well, but it's usually a more understated one that still tapers but has no brim (when Richard Harris played the character) or a pudding-basin cap with a tassel (in his Gambon incarnation). This also carries over to the prequel Fantastic Beasts series. The only character who wears one of these costumes is Nicolas Flamel. Not even forty-something Dumbledore wears them. This is presumably to share an art style with the original series as well as the aforementioned market research. | |

Frequently parodied in The Owl House, with the lack of knowledge about real Witches as opposed to the fictional ones Luz Noceda reads about. Played for Laughs in "Witches before Wizards". Luz is so excited to begin her training under Eda that she puts on some "Witchy Clothes" in order to fit in. Said clothes consist of a bathrobe, and a traffic cone covered in so much dust that it has turned black and was mistaken for a hat by Luz. Played for Laughs again in "Lost in Language". Luz attempts to initiate a Big Damn Heroes moment when she goes to save Amity from a mutated Otabin. In doing so, she uses Amity's Diary to give her a robe in the style of The Good Witch Azura. This outfits lasts for around 30 seconds before Otabin catches her and closes the book dismissing it. Played straight in "Thanks to Them" and onwards, where Luz wears an Azura Halloween costume, complete with a large Witch's Hat. Said costume is the outfit that she wears in the battle against a Belos possessed Hunter, and later the outfit that she wears when the Hexsquad alongside Camila return to the Demon Realm. This gets taken even further when she gains a Super Mode from being infused with the Titan's life force in "Watching and Dreaming", with her white Auzura costume being swapped out for a black one that is far closer to the image of a Witch Classic. |

In 3rd edition and Pathfinder, the trope is Justified in that armour interfered with the gestures used in casting arcane spells, potentially ruining a spell at a crucial moment. That wizards tend towards the Squishy and can surround themselves in defensive magic without lugging around half their body weight in armour is also a factor. Some magic-users, like the warmage and Beguiler, are more capable in armour thanks to specialized training. Wealthy enough wizards have a workaround in the form of mithral armour with enchantments to make it even more maneuverable; for bonus points, it can be glamoured to look like a robe. Wealthy and Properly Paranoid wizards wearing pointy hats are probably wearing shrunken, polymorphed metal cones that will disenchant and shield them from any Anti-Magic Fields they might wander into. Robes are encouraged, but the pointy hat is not. You can adorn your head with magical crowns, goggles, masks, helms, and skull caps, but there is a single magical hat (a hat of disguise, more suited for a trickster than a wizard) in any of the source books out so far. |

There are magical Robes aplenty in Dungeons & Dragons related games due to the fact wizards and the like can suffer from Arcane spell failure if they wear armour, which is an indirect cause of Squishy Wizard. Characters who draw their powers from holy sources can run around in full suits of armour with no problems, probably because they can rely on divine assistance. Sort of a Deconstructed Trope to many players and Game Masters, most agree that anyone telegraphing that they are squishy by wearing this garb is guaranteed to be the first target of any intelligent creature in combat. And then Baldur's Gate rolled along and subverts it and provides Player Characters with no pointy hats to put on. But then still cameo's Elminster with one! Party mages have to settle for imposing looking hoods instead. |

The Sims: In The Sims 2, magic users wear a robe and pointy hat, and the colors magically change upon their alignment. Good ones wear white robes with gold trim, and evil ones wear black robes.Neutral ones wear brown and grey robes. In The Sims Medieval, the majority of outfits available to Wizards are robes, and there's a pointy hat that only Wizards can wear. |

The Sorcerer's Apprentice section from Fantasia features a particularly nice wizard hat. Just don't play with it while the owner's out. This appearance of Mickey is also one of the primary logos of The Walt Disney Company. Sorcerer Mickey functioned as the mascot of Disney with images of him placed on the first five years worth of VHS tapes and the clamshells they came in (the tape programs opened with a "Neon Mickey" logo to start.) He began appearing in the 1986 version of the Walt Disney Home Video logo and then the second form of the Walt Disney Classics logo from 1988 until that line's retirement in 1994; that line included Fantasia as a release. (The Home Video logo was put on third string a year later, but still popped up every once in a while until 2006.) Sorcerer Mickey also is the mascot of Walt Disney Imagineering. | |

Yuki Nagato's class in Haruhi Suzumiya dressed her up as a fortune-telling witch for the School Festival by means of a cloak and pointy hat over her school uniform. Haruhi hijacked the costume (and the wearer) for her own student movie. As a highly advanced, probability altering alien, her predictions are all 100% accurate (much to the chagrin of some students). In the light novels, it's unclear where Yuki's outfit came from or whose idea it was, and Kyon notes a number of similarly dressed people attending the school festival that he was later unable to match up with any group of students or club. He hypothesizes they may have been visitors from a parallel dimension who Yuki was expecting, and her outfit was chosen to blend in. | |

The Phantom Zone: Thul-Kar, the last of the Wizards of Juru, wears purple robes and a similarly purple, horned, pointy hat. In Supergirl story arc "The Super-Steed of Steel", Endor, the wizard-king of planet Zerox, wears grey-violet robes, and his crown is a golden tiara encircling a violet pointy hat. |

In Hogfather, a Wizard's idea of going incognito (so people don't recognize that he is a wizard) is to wear a darker, less fancy pointy hat. And of course, the Dean, who gets... very gung-ho about whatever new idea has caught the wizards' fancy this time, has occasionally been spotted with pointy hair. The pointy bath-cap mentioned in Live Action Film above is taken directly from the book as well, although considering the Archchancellor was trying out a bathroom designed and installed by "Bloody Stupid" Johnson he might have been better off with a pointy crash helmet. | |

In Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura, spellcasting tires you out, meaning mages tend to wear light clothing, such as robes, but nothing stops you from wearing enchanted armor (mechanical armor, like every other technological item, is bad for you though) if you strong enough to carry it without penalty (decently possible for chain mail, fairly hard for plate mail). | |

The Elder Scrolls: Justified throughout the series when it comes to robes, as they can typically hold more powerful enchantments than regular apparel. "Hats" are fairly rare, however, and in several cases, are replaced by wizard "hoods" instead. In Oblivion, and to a lesser extent Skyrim, there are spell efficiency penalties for wearing armor, essentially enforcing this trope. For those role-playing as casters (or any spell-heavy type of class) this reduces desirable outfits to robe & hood or regular civilian style clothes. Usually enchanted. (See also: Armor and Magic Don't Mix for a more extensive explanation.) Interestingly, the only non-armor wrist items for in Oblivion are the Wrist Irons you start the game with. All other items count as armor and lower the spell efficiency. They are the only pair in the vanilla game, though more can be found with the Shivering Isles expansion. |

The DCU: Enchantress had a witch's hat, until the Shadowpact series took it away. Cyclone, the first Red Tornado's granddaughter, wears a robe... thing and pointy hat, despite not actually being a mage. Her wind and air manipulation superpowers are nanomachine-based. It's a reference to her favourite book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. There aren't many pointy hats on display in The Books of Magic miniseries, but at one point young Tim Hunter meets a gathering of trench-coated DC magic heroes which he describes as "looking like a perverts convention." |

Touhou Project: Marisa Kirisame wears a pointy wizard hat, though her robes are rather unstandard. The other (stated) magicians, Alice Margatroid and Patchouli Knowledge, both have robes (Alice's are colorful but loosely standard, while Patchy's are more like pajamas — justified by her tendency towards being ill far too much), but Alice has only a hair band, and Patchy's hat only has a point on it because she has a cresent moon shape attached to it. And then there is Marisa's former master Mima, who wears a pointed blue cap with a sun on it and blue robes. There is one more magician in the series — Byakuren Hijiri. However, she averts this — being one of the few characters in the entire series to not have any head decoration whatsoever. (Take note that animal ears are being counted as hair decorations here.) |

Black Mages from the Final Fantasy series dress in blue robes and yellow wizard hats. Red Mages use a variation, a red tabard and a magnificent red chevalier with a white feather. White Mages wear a white robe or poncho with blood-red triangles around the edges, which may or may not include a hood, occasionally with a set of Cat Ears on the hood as in the case of Krile of Final Fantasy V. Less commonly, the Time Mage class wear conical red hats with a star on them and loose-fitting robes and Summoners wear a horned-headband-and-robe getup. | |

I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level: When Azusa is first reincarnated as a Witch, her new body has an oversized, wide-brimmed conical black hat with a bow and a crumpled point. It remains part of her standard outfit as Witch of the Highlands and is sometimes exaggerated by being drawn almost as large as her body. | |

The titular character in Simon the Sorcerer games looks the part... except he's not an actual sorcerer but a snarky kid from our world, who keeps getting dragged into the magical one to fight Sordid. His pointy hat may be magical, considering he keeps his entire inventory in there. When he does finally learn to casts spells, his repertoire is limited to fashion magic. Which basically means he can change the colour of his Robe and Wizard Hat. | |

Justified and enforced in The Dark Eye, where the body of laws for wizards, the Codex Albyricus, demands this type of clothing (several sets for different circumstances and incantations) to make users of magic instantly recognizable to honest people, so "their righteous mistrust shall be awakened". Most civilized wizards will follow it to the letter as a matter of class conciousness. | |

Played with in Warhammer. Wizard clothes run the gamut from traditional cloak and pointy hat to shamanistic feathers and headdressess to naked. Chaos sorcerers, on the other hand can, and often do, wear full plate armor. Heinrich Kemmler, the Lichemaster, has a version where the robe appears to be made of human skin and the hat is adorned with skulls. The Shadowmancers of the Grey Order are the most likely to play this straight, if monochromatic. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The Great and Powerful Trixie, a stage magician who likes to put on airs of being a powerful wizard, wears a purple cape and a floppy broad-brimmed wizard's hat, both decorated with blue and yellow stars. In a mild exaggeration of this trope, in "To Where and Back Again" she even has a long, floppy nightcap with the exact same pattern and color as her hat that she wears when she sleeps. Starswirl the Bearded, the most powerful unicorn wizard in history and essentially the Merlin of the FIM world, habitually wore a deep blue cape and wizard hat decorated with yellow stars and moons. These were additionally decorated with small golden bells adorning the hem of his cap and the tip and brim of his hat. Twilight wore a similar ensemble on Nightmare Night (Halloween, essentially) to emulate him, and Starswirl himself is wearing the full getup when he appears in "Shadow Play". Sunburst, Starlight Glimmer's childhood friend, wears a blue cape dotted with light blue stars as an adult. Played with, in that he's not actually a wizard and can't use magic very well, but he remains a very knowledgeable scholar of magic lore. |

In Gothic, the sinister necromancer robes is one of the best armors in the game, easily outclassing most standard armors and roughly equal in protectiveness to the final armor. Before that, the robes you can obtain by joining the wizard groups are also fairly par to whatever regular armor you can obtain at the time. | |

In Dungeon Crawl, heavier armor imposes penalties on spellcasting. This can be mitigated by raising the Armor skill, but even at max level anything heavier than ring mail will incur penalties. The usual armor for most magi is a robe, but armor made from the hide of a steam dragon or mottled dragon is similarly lightweight and provides better protection. | |

Through The Riftwar Cycle, magicians either forego hats entirely or stick to something scholarly or in courtly fashion, and on the rare occasion a magician wears a practical broad-brimmed hat, only Kulgan's, at the very beginning of the series, is pointy. Still, the almost-universal preference for robes is a dead giveaway for their profession. | |

Negima! Magister Negi Magi present a strange mix of uses and inversions of this trope: The full garb is apparently part of the uniform of the two Wizarding Schools the main protagonist and the Little Miss Snarker attended. Several other characters appeared with the pointy hat and it's a permanent part of Anya's clothing. There was also that child mage in the Bad Future. On the other hand, the standard mage clothing seems to be a long, billowing white cloak with a hood replacing the hat. No (named) adult so far (except Stan) has worn a hat. An early conception of "conflict" between Negi and Evangeline was that she would refuse to take her wizard hat off. This never made it into the series. The important characters will usually wear a Badass Long Robe (often tattered). |

Tsubame, from Urusei Yatsura, always wears a traditional "magician's cape", though without the pointy hat. Given his other favored attire is a tuxedo, and his comments about having gone to "the West" to study his magic, it's clear he's supposed to be a parody of/reference to the stage magician, instead of the actual Hermetic Magic-using Squishy Wizard associated with Western magic users. | |

Avoided in Mage: The Awakening and Mage: The Ascension, thanks to its Gothic Punk modern setting and Masquerade. The new Robe And Wizard Hat is usually a trenchcoat and a punk haircut. | |

Played with in The Bartimaeus Trilogy, where it is only the lesser magicians who dress as stereotypical wizards as a way to compensate for their lesser standing. The truly powerful mages tend dress like accountants. | |

Ars Magica has two deliberate versions in the Order of Hermes: House Mercere are messengers and middlemen who wear a signature pointed red hat, optionally with matching robes, to advertise their identity. It's also for protection: magi are suspicious by nature, but Mercere are the Protectorate of the entire order. House Jerbiton, the self-appointed envoys between magi and Muggles, spread the idea that robes and hats are "proper wizard attire" — both so magi can be identified when they want to be and so it's easy to pass as mundane when they don't want to be. |

Oibore from Rurouni Kenshin is not a mage, but his outfit (natty robes, a pointy bamboo hat, and a scraggly hobo beard) add weight to his role as The Mentor. | |

In A Field in England, the alchemist O'Neill wears a cape with mysterious writing on the inside and a type of hat called a capotain that may have been the inspiration for the stereotypical witch hat in popular culture. | |

In The Sims Medieval, the majority of outfits available to Wizards are robes, and there's a pointy hat that only Wizards can wear. | |

One of the special Items-of-the-month in Kingdom of Loathing is the Jewel-eyed wizard hat, probably the best hat for Mysticality classes (like with the chefstaves, power is not as important as the mysticality-related bonuses it gives). | |

Magicka depicts all wizards in hooded robes, and some may opt to wear a wizard hat instead. It also makes a Shout-Out to the Trope Namer in the name of the achievement for picking up all the spellbooks. | |

In the third episode of Merlin, the title character — who has mostly averted this trope by wearing typical clothes — sarcastically argues that he should wear a pointy hat to convince Arthur that he's a wizard. | |

Kingdom Hearts Donald Duck tends to wear one when he's at Disney Castle and not out adventuring with Sora. For good measure, his basic staff incorporates a robe and wizard hat into its design. There is the extremely cute-but deadly Majik Lapin in Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], complete with its own top and cape. Not only just a powerful magician rabbit, it can also cast spells with each of its ears! |

City of Heroes features the Cabal, an all-female group of witches, who wear black capes and pointy hats. If the player manages to prove themselves against the Cabal's leader, they unlock Witch Hats at the tailor for their own use. The human members of the Circle of Thorns also dress in robes. Some of them wear hats (not pointy, but still unmistakably magey). | |

The opening line of The Witches lampshades what people immediately imagine when they think of witches: "In fairy tales, witches always wear silly black hats and cloaks, and they ride on broomsticks." This is before it goes on to say, "but this this is not a fairy tale: this is about REAL witches." | |

The sorcerers and sorceresses in the world of The Witcher usually wear casual, if elegant, garbs (though the latter often opt for awfully whorely dresses), but robes-and-pointy hats suits do exist. They are traditional dress kept for special occasions, emphasizing their unity as magic users. | |

The Secret Island of Dr. Quandary: The title character, an eccentric magician who transforms the player into a doll and forces them to brew a magical potion to escape and turn human again, wears a dapper broad-brimmed top hat as a sort of modern variation of this trope. | |
