religious attire
Clergy's formal clothing
Religious attire is clothing worn to signify faith, piety, or religious role.
The term encompasses garments required by religious law or tradition—a Muslim woman's hijab, a Jewish man's yarmulke, a Sikh's turban, a nun's habit.
Religious attire often marks the wearer as observant or clergy: The school's dress code made exceptions for religious attire.
