Cassock-alb

Cassock-alb

The cassock alb or cassalb is a relatively modern garment and is a combination of the traditional cassock and alb. It developed as a convenient undergarment worn by clergy and as an alternative to the alb for deacons and acolytes.

Usage

A white or off-white cassock-alb has replaced the traditional cassock and alb in some Anglican churches since the 1970s. On rules concerning its use, see [http://www.churchtimes.co.uk/content.asp?id=37346 The Church Times.] This garment is not the same as the chasuble-alb, which is approved for use in the Roman Catholic Church in certain circumstances.Citation?
