Depends on the church. In Greek Orthodox Catholc church, nothing is worn. In the LDS church, a pure white suit is worn, and the person is completely immersed in a tub of water. In my church - Presbyterian - anything can be worn, most likely nice clothes, as the water is just a few drop on the head.
