Harry Potter and the Cursed Child's social media revealed several of the Hogwarts robes that will be worn by students of all ages in the upcoming two-part plays. After a bit of high-contrast editing of the hi-resolution image (below the cut), the following could be made out:
Quote:
• Top left: Traditional Cloak
• Top second from left: Hogwarts First Year
• Top third from left: Hogwarts Emoji Robe
• Top fourth from left: Hogwarts Ceremonial
Surcote Robe
• Top fourth from right: Ceremonial Surcote Over Hogwarts Robe
• Top third from right: Hogwarts Mid-School Robe
• Top second from right: Hogwarts Sixth Form Robe
• Top right: Sixth Form Robe, Prefect Surcote
The second row seems to be showing the backs of all these robes, save for the image on the far left of a female figure, which is different. The first word seems to be 'short' for the description but otherwise a bit hard to tell.

“Early sketch for the new Hogwarts black robes with added top robes and house hoods, as part of the uniform set. I was looking for a natural visual progression with this new story plus any ways to add individuality within the uniform" – Katrina Lindsay, costume designer #CursedChild #HarryPotterPlay
For an idea of what the robes look like in physical form, the teaser video from the play and J.K. Rowling showed a few figures wearing dark robes similar to the Hogwarts sets seen above.
Previews for the two-part play begin early next month at the Palace Theatre in London, and tickets are sold out through the rest of 2016.
