Ric Flair (robes)

A lot of wrestlers wore robes to the ring, especially in the old days, but none of them made them iconic more than the styling and profiling, limousine-riding, jet-flying, kiss-stealing, wheelin’ n’ dealin’ son of a gun!
Costing about $10,000 on average, most of those were designed and made by Olivia Walker, who also made robes and gear for several other wrestlers (Greg Valentine, Lex Luger, Paul Orndorff, Dusty Rhodes, Madusa, Stan Stasiak, the Killer Bees, her husband Mr. Wrestling II…), and, from 2002 onwards, by Terry Anderson, a WWE seamstress.

Footage from the 70s and the 80s being what it is, a lot of shows are probably missing from the index, so the premiere years are to be taken with a grain of salt. He apparently started to wear a robe to the ring as early as 1975. That being said, I think all the robes are here.

A few of these robes were altered at some point (to add rhinestones, fur…) Sometimes it will grant them a different entry here, sometimes it won’t.
