My high school (public) colors are orange and navy blue. I have to say, the girls looked great in the orange. The guys looked great in the blue.

The girls had white collars to attach to the gown. We bought ours. Since I actually graduated from summer school, all the kids wore white gowns with the tassel from their home school. It was a district wide graduation. So, I have two set of gowns.
The honor/CSF (California Scholarship Federation) students got to keep their cords and/or sashes.
For college, I wore black for my Jr. college graduation. We bought them. I know that City College of San Francisco has switched from red to black every now and then. School colors are red and white.
Since my current school (Academy of Art) uses black, I will re-use the one I have from CCSF since we have to buy them.
The universities I attended but transferred out of:
Grambling State: All wear black. School colors are Black and Gold.
SFSU: All wear purple. School colors are Purple and Gold.
