What Is Female Bishop Attire?

Female bishop attire refers to the vestments and clerical garments worn by women serving in the episcopal office — the highest ordained rank in many Christian traditions. Purple has long been the traditional color associated with the episcopate, symbolizing penance, royalty, and spiritual authority, which is why much of our women's bishop attire collection is presented in Roman purple and red-purple tones.
