I'd like it if the dress were longer. Like ankle-length.

This way, we avoid the dreaded pantyhose. [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/reaper.gif[/img]

I know what you mean. I HATE pantyhose or tights. Whenever I wear them I am super uncomfortable. They bind my stomach (I have a very sensitive tummy) and make me feel like I'm wearing a girdle. When I was discerning religious life, I was hoping and praying that whatever community God called me to, that they didn't waer hose--or at least allowed me to wear thigh highs.

This is the postulant outfit for the Passionist Nuns. It looks like the veil is pretty long in the back, or maybe its just the picture.

I think it'd be nice if she had become a novice in the 2nd "Sister Act" movie.. especially if that movie took place more than two years later.

And I've never seen a Carmelite postulant outfit like this before .. with the large brown scapular as part of the dress/jumper, as the novices and professed wear .. it is neat, although I still like the brown dress with the cape the best. This picture is so beautiful though!

Are you sure she is wearing a scapular and not just a brown jumper (dress)? It would be very rare for the scapular to be given without the habit as it is blessed and a sacramental, and is usually kissed before putting it on, like the veil. It could be, I 'm just asking.

I like the postulant outfit below... the bonnets are just too much, aren't they?

OMG! Wearing a postualant dress like that would be a real humiliation for me... Thank God i went from MC habit to Carmelite novice habit.

The bonnets look like shower caps - perhaps dual duty headwear??

Well I couldn't find a picture of that one, but I love the postulant outfits for the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Church! They're blue and white with a white veil. Very Marian.
