The bishop wears an omophorion, which is more similar to the ancient pallium in shape and style than either the stole or the epitrachelion. Since the 16th century, the bishop has used a dalmatic known as the sakkos in place of the phelonion. This garment is shaped like a half-shirt with sleeves, and is made of silk or cotton. The dalmatic covers the episcopal robes just above the waist, and extends down to cover the legs. It may be open at the side or closed with a buttonhole.
In addition to the omophorion, the bishop wears several other items of clothing including a chiton, himation, stolion, and uragomphus. The chiton is a long shirt with pleats down the front; it leaves the neck and chest exposed. The himation is a long, draped cloak that comes over the dalmatic and wraps around the body. The stolion is a long, narrow strip of cloth worn by men over their shoulder blades to denote their status as priests. The uragomphus is a large, square cloak with a hood attached to one side; it is usually red in color.
Bishops also wear certain objects on their person to signify their office. These include a staff, a crozier, and a mitre.
In the God Wars Dungeon, monk robes are now considered Saradomin goods. Under their robes, what do Catholic monks wear? They dress in cassocks, which are long-sleeved, hookup garments that are usually ankle length. Each monastery may have its own color scheme for its cassock but generally they are dark blue, black, red, or gray.
Monks wear hats while praying or during ceremonies. These are called cowls and come in various shapes and sizes. Some are flat, like a baseball cap, while others have a peak to them like a bishop's hat. Most monasteries produce their own wool clothes using techniques that have not changed much over time. The clothes are dyed colors specified by the church and often include a mustard color known as grisaille (or grey scale) for everyday use. Gold and silver threads are also used to make embroidery for holy objects. Finally, monks wear leather shoes when they are not praying so they can walk in peace.
There are many paths into religion. Some become priests who help people at church services and in their communities. Others join seminaries to learn more about the Bible and the Church. Still others travel abroad to study Buddhism or Hinduism at sacred sites known as universities. Whatever path they choose, all religious leaders must be ordained in some way.
To complement his white cassock, the pope usually wears a white zucchetto. The most frequent Anglican design is akin to the Catholic zucchetto or, more often, the Jewish yarmulke. Almost all priests in the Syriac Orthodox church wear a seven-panel zucchetto called a phiro. Some Latin American bishops have chosen to wear yarmulkes.
In addition to these clerical items of clothing, the pope has several other symbols that identify him as head of the Catholic Church. One is the ring with four keys, which symbolizes his role as guardian of the four corners of the earth. The other key elements are the pallium, a woolen cloak worn by Eastern-rite bishops; and the shepherd's staff, used by Pope Francis at his installation and every Sunday during Lent.
The pope does not drive a car but instead uses a motorized vehicle for transportation. This means-of-transport is known as a "motorcycle" or a "car".
Pope John XXIII wore a yarmulke when he went into churches to bless people. Pope Paul VI did the same thing.
But it was only after his election as bishop of Rome that Joseph Ratzinger began wearing one himself. He always did so even while he was a priest. It was then that he started calling himself "Cardinal-Priest Ratzinger."
Over the mozzetta, the Pope wears a pectoral cross hanging on a gold cord. Even while not ministering at a service, he may choose to wear a scarlet stole with gold embroidery over the mozzetta. Although Pope John Paul II occasionally wore black or brown leather shoes, the papal shoes were typically crimson.
The Pope's wardrobe is provided by the Vatican City State and consists of clergymen's clothing. He is given new clothes every day so that he can return them the next day.
Pope Francis has brought back the traditional white cassock worn by all Catholic priests. This article will focus on the Pope's personal style while he was an ordinary priest before his election as pope.
He has been seen wearing a blue shirt with white collar markings during official functions, such as meetings with bishops from different countries.
During private audiences with individuals, he often wears a white collared shirt without any marks other than a small golden crucifix which hangs from a chain around his neck.
In addition to his daily uniform, Pope Francis has been seen wearing other distinctive items such as a yellow ribbon during times of public mourning, like after a terrorist attack. He has also been photographed wearing sandals during summer months when visiting churches in the Vatican gardens.
During the Easter Octave, the Pope traditionally wears the white paschal mozzetta, which is made of white damask silk and adorned with white ermine. The Pope also wears a red chasuble with gold trim and an image of Christ on it.
The Pope dresses in this way for Mass, but during other services he may dress more simply. He usually wears brown shoes when going into a church or chapel, and after the service he will change into plain black shoes or sandals.
In addition to these garments, the Pope always carries a large golden cross before him during Mass and whenever he goes into a church. This cross is called a pallium and it was formerly used by bishops when celebrating Mass or preaching from their diocesan cathedral altar. Now it is only used on ceremonial occasions.
The Pope does not have any special clothes needed for other services than Mass, except that he normally wears his ring of office during ceremonies outside Mass unless otherwise indicated.
He may also wear a cassock to certain services, such as those held outside of mass, but this is not required.
