Legal Terms - Blue Bag

Historically, a bag designed for the purpose of transporting a barrister's robes. When an individual is admitted to the bar, according to custom, they are given a blue garment as part of their attire.

He needs a bag to transport his robe and wig box. If the young lawyer performs admirably in a case led by a Queen's Counsel, it is within the QC's prerogative to bestow upon the junior lawyer a red bag as a token of recognition.
