Best Answer

In the medieval period the Dominicans wore off-white habits and large black cloaks fitted with hoods, so black over white. The habits were off-white because they were made of natural undyed and unbleached sheep's wool.

Today some Dominicans continue this tradition, but some have moved away from the black-over-white idea and wear all white, or grey, or other colours.
