*[[Alb]] - linen overgarment, worn with a cincture (beltrope) over the cassock and beneath liturgical vestments or as outer garment for a server. Ofter have lace cuffs and from hips down.
*[[Amice]] - square of linen with ties, originally worn on the head as a hood, now worn thrown back over the alb purportedly to protect vestments from sweat and oil.
*[[Apparels]] - pieces of brocade worn on the amice and alb in English or Medieval style as decorations.
*[[Mitre]]- pointed cap with two peaks: front and back. Classified by three levels of decoration and costliness. Worn by bishops and abbots. English or Medieval style very short, Roman style much taller.
*[[Orphrey]] - the gilded and embroidered bands of decoration on Western vestments.
*[[Rochet]] - long thigh length linen garment, more fitting than a surplice, similar to alb but worn un-belted. Is generally gathered close around the neck and wrists. Lace around cuffs and bottom third.
*[[Stole]] - a narrow band of cloth worn about the neck hanging down. The method of wear denotes the office: straight down for bishop, crossed at the breast for priest, crossed at the side for deacon.
*[[Tunicle]] - a wide sleeved tunic, slit up the sides, generally smaller in scale than the Dalmatic. Decorated with two stripes - normally worn by Subdeacons at liturgy, can be worn by other crucifer, thurifer, and clerk.
