tippets

Clergy neck drapes

Tippets are narrow scarves or stole-like garments worn around the neck and shoulders.

In ecclesiastical dress, a tippet is a black scarf worn by Anglican clergy over the surplice.

In fishing, tippet is the thin, nearly invisible line connecting the fly to the leader: I need to replace the tippet—a fish broke it off.
