clerical collars
Clerical collars are distinctive garments worn by clergy members, particularly in the Christian faith. These collars are typically white and made of stiff fabric, designed to be worn around the neck. They symbolize the wearer's commitment to their religious duties and are often associated with Catholic, Anglican, and Protestant denominations.
The collar can be worn with various types of clerical attire, such as a cassock or a suit. It serves as a visual identifier of a clergy member's role within the community, helping to distinguish them from laypeople. The use of clerical collars has a long history, reflecting tradition and religious significance.
