Simar
The simar is a Roman Catholic garment reserved for bishops. It is similar to a cassock, but has a shoulder cape and double sleeves. The simar generally takes the place of the cassock for non-sacred formal wear. The simar is black with colored trim and piping: amaranth for bishops and archbishops and scarlet for cardinals. The Pope wears a solid white simar and never wears a cassock.
