judicial robe
Black bench attire
A judicial robe is the formal black garment worn by judges in court, symbolizing the authority and impartiality of the office.
The flowing gown deliberately obscures individual identity, emphasizing that the person speaks for the law rather than themselves: The nominee will don the judicial robe if confirmed.
