Clergy Attire
Clergy attire refers to the specific clothing worn by members of the clergy, such as priests, ministers, and pastors, during religious services and ceremonies. This attire often includes items like the cassock, a long robe, and the stole, a narrow strip of fabric worn around the neck, symbolizing their role in the church. The colors and styles of clergy attire can vary based on the denomination and occasion.
In addition to the cassock and stole, clergy may also wear a surplice, a white garment worn over the cassock, and a chasuble, a vestment worn during the Eucharist. These garments often have symbolic meanings and are chosen to reflect the liturgical season, such as Advent or Lent.
