ceremonial regalia
Official dress ornaments
Ceremonial regalia are the formal objects, garments, and insignia worn or carried during official or ritual occasions.
A monarch's regalia include crown, scepter, and orb; a judge's include robes and wig; a graduate's include cap and gown.
The term emphasizes the symbolic weight of these items—they mark status, authority, or membership in a tradition: The chief appeared in full ceremonial regalia.
