It is sometimes called a chasuble.
Chasuble
The chasuble and the stole are always the same color and material, they are made at the same time.
Catholic AnswerYes, according to the General Instruction of the Roman Missal, paragraph 337 requires that the priest who is celebrating the Mass be vested in a Chasuble. 337. The vestment proper to the Priest Celebrant at Mass and during other sacred actions directly connected with Mass is the chasuble worn, unless otherwise indicated, over the alb and stole.
White is the color for Easter Season
The outermost garment worn by a priest while saying Mass is called a chasuble.
The stole represents a priest's authority. The Chasuble represents love. The stole is worn under the Chasuble because authority is always at the service of love, not the other way around. As an aside, I would be remiss if I did not draw attention to the fact that "overlay" stoles (stoles worn over the chasuble) tends to be favorite of progressive clergy. Little to they know what they are implicitly saying by doing that: "Love at the service of authority." Ironically progressive clergy are the ones who love to minimize priestly authority, yet their Liturgical action suggests otherwise!
If you mean the liturgical vestment worn around the shoulders of priests as they administer the sacraments it is called a 'stole'.
no the cassock goes under the chasuble
During the sacrament of holy orders, a priest typically wears liturgical vestments such as an alb, a stole, and a chasuble. These vestments symbolize the priest's role as a mediator between God and the faithful community.
.Catholic AnswerThe robe the priest wears all year at Mass is called an alb and is white (the word alb comes from the Latin word for white). During Advent the priest wears a violet chasuble over this.
The alb is always white, for every minister on every day of the year. The stole and chasuble of a priest is a different color according to the season. During Easter it is also white, and may also include gold or silver.
