A White Vest for Festive Services
Our white clergy vest is made for the days when the church celebrates. The body is bright white, edged with a fine red piping and fastened with red buttons. The model wears it with black sleeves, so the white tab, the white vest and the dark shirt create a bold, clean contrast.
When White Is Worn
White is the color of Easter and Christmas in the church year and is widely used for weddings, baptisms and other joyful services. The red accents add warmth and make the vest suitable for Pentecost-season celebrations and ordination receptions as well. Many pastors also like a white vest for outdoor and summer events.

Prefer black accents? Try the white-and-black version. Black shirts to wear underneath are in our clergy shirts range, and a red tippet matches the trim.
White Clergy Vest FAQs
When do clergy wear a white vest?
White is the liturgical color of Easter and Christmas and is common for weddings, baptisms and other celebrations. Many pastors also wear a white vest for summer and outdoor services.
What shirt goes under a white clergy vest?
A black shirt gives the strongest contrast, which is how it is modeled here. A red clergy shirt also suits the red edging.
Does this white vest have colored trim?
Yes. The edging and the buttons are red. For black details on a white body, there is a separate white vest with black piping.
Will a white vest show stains easily?
Any white garment shows marks more than black does. The tropical suiting resists wrinkles, but care instructions are not yet confirmed, so ask the shop how to clean it before washing.
What sizes does the white clergy vest come in?
It is made in XS to 6XL, priced $89.99 up to 3XL and $99.99 from 4XL. See the chest chart on the page.
