Of course, But there have been restylings of religious costumes since Vatican II. some have an undress- or regular duty uniform that, except for the veil, could pass muster as a travel hostess or perhaps a female subway conductor. The traditional costumes, like Dress Uniforms in the armed forces, are retained for formal occasions such as masses, induction ceremonies, funerals, etc. Each order is different as regards dress rules, however. there are no, or very few (Plainclothes) or (Undercover) Nuns and the situation in the (Oddly) Elvis Presely film ( change of habit) -not about drug rehabilitation! was in the light of canon law, practically impossible . Nuns do not work undercover- certainly not in major cities, as three of them did in the film. somewhat improbably Presely played a ( Hip) socially-reform minded Doctor- Oh Boy!
