Ferraiolo: A full-length cape reaching to the ankles.Monsignors, bishops and cardinals have what is known as a "choir cassock" for liturgical occasions but this is not worn for everyday wear. The color is black for priests, black with purple piping for canons, black with magenta piping for monsignors, black with amaranth red piping for bishops and black with scarlet red for cardinals. Monks and friars wear a habit which can differ considerably from the cassock. Some religious societies such as the Jesuits and Redemptorists wear their own style of cassock. This is the norm for secular clergy and members of religious institutes. Depending on the climate it can be made of very lightweight material or heavy wool. ![]()
