Vestments and other clergy attire such as a priest collar or priest robes are respectful pieces worn to promote a sense of dignity, reverence, recognition and authority. When you are dressed in clergy vestments, you’re declaring God’s word, a distinction from your own personal word. Since churches, mosques, temples and synagogues are holy and special, the symbolic attire is important and shows respect to your religion and to the congregation.
You can learn more about traditional vestments by reading one of our earlier blog posts. In addition to exploring the specifics of priest collars and vestment attire, there are also differences when it comes to the colours of clergy shirts worn to celebrate and recognize different celebrations and events. All of this information cements the fact that custom clergy vestments are an important component of faith and as such, need to accurately reflect the role they play.
Finding Vestments That Serve Your Needs
Priest robes, collars and other vestment pieces worn in Canada are important when it comes to spirituality and aesthetics. The beauty of this attire serves to remind us that worship is something special and dignified, and should not be held in the same category as other typical activities.
