nun habit
Sister's religious attire
A nun habit is the distinctive religious garment worn by nuns, typically consisting of a tunic, veil, and wimple in black, white, or gray.
The style varies by religious order, with some habits covering nearly everything except the face: She recognized the nun habit from her Catholic school days.
Many orders have modernized or simplified their habits since the 1960s.
