Tippet
Tunic


Tippet: Black scarf worn by clergy during some services other than the Holy Eucharist. An English tippet is a scarf that is very full and was originally used for protection from inclement weather. Contemporary tippets are reduced in size and are more symbolic, often having the seals of seminaries, schools, or dioceses upon them.

Tunic: Also known as a tunicle. A vestment with ample sleeves worn over an alb or cassock-alb of the same liturgical color as the vestments of the celebrant or some other festive color. This vestment is usually worn by the subdeacon, and may be worn by the crucifer on festive occasions.
