Anglo Catholic Answer:

Our priests wear a clerical shirt with a priest's collar and black pants or, alternatively, a cassock with a collar.

For liturgical purposes they wear:

1- biretta, a black hat with a pom pom

2- cassock.

3- Over their cassock they wear a long white robe called an alb.

4. Over the alb on their shoulders they wear folded cloth called an amice.

5. Around the waist they wear a rope belt called a cincture.

6. Around the left wrist they wear a piece of cloth the color of whatever feast they are celebrating.

8. Around their neck they wear a stole the color of the feast.

9. For processions and the asperges, they wear a colorful cloak / cape over all the foregoing called a cope.

10. For the actual celebration of Mass, they remove the cope and wear a piece of colorful, stylized cloth called a chasuble.

Normally, when a priest is vesting for Mass, over his street clothes, he puts an amice around his shoulders (note: since the Second Vatican Council the amice may be dispensed with if the alb is designed in such a way as to completely hide his street clothes), over that he puts an alb, which is secured with a cincture. Over his shoulders he places the stole, which, if he is a priest vesting for the Extraordinary form, is crossed over his chest. He may also place a maniple on his left forearm, finally over all that goes the chasuble - the vestment.
