Professor Lockhart does wear his robes to fine effect.
I did see the Malfoys' cloak clasps, but I didn't realise their son had made them. That's quite extraordinary, really. Do you mean that he drew the designs and commissioned the clasps or that he did the metalwork himself? Now you mention it, I guess I did know he's something of an artist, but I thought pen and ink was his forte.
And I agree, Mrs Malfoy manages true elegance to a degree few women ever attain. It is not simply a matter of the quality of her robes and accessories, but of the way she carries herself: she never courts attention, and yet heads turn whenever she enters a room. Beauty is as beauty does, Mama says, and I've always found Mrs Malfoy to be as gracious as she is lovely.
