Well, in the prehistoric times cave men used to wear fur and skin coats. In the medieval times they didn't wear fur as they thought it might of caused the plague. But they did wear wool. in the Victorian era fur coats began to become more and more fashionable. In the 20th century fur coats were used for very posh occasions. Now in the 21st century fur is becoming increasingly fashionable. Hope this helps

What colours do stoles come in and what time of year they are worn?

What Colors Do Fur Stoles Come In & What Time Of Year Are They Worn?Stoles are worn by priests in the Christian church and match the liturgical colours that are used on the communion tables (altars) and elsewhere in church. White stoles are worn at the great festivals like Christmas and Easter as these are joyous occasions and so the white (sometimes tinged with gold too) gives the people an uplift when entering church. Purple stoles are worn during times of repentance or reflection, during times of the year where we need to examine ourselves and our lifestyles. Purple, being a darker austere colour, creates a more solemn atmosphere. it is for this reason it is displayed in Lent or Advent. Red stoles are worn at Pentecost, to remind us of the flames of the Holy Spirit falling on the heads of the disciples. They are also worn on certain saints' days (if the church commemorates saints) especially if the saint was martyred, a the red reminds us of the blood shed by the saint at his or her martyrdom. Finally, at all other times green stoles are worn, as green is the colour of nature, it is neutral to the eye, and reminds us of God who created us and everything around us.For Women that prefer to wear fur stoles it is during the Autumn to Winter months of the year. Stoles come in many colors ranging from different shades of black/brown/white/mottled in color and are now generally frowned upon because the species of animals that these stoles are often made of (mink, fox, etc.) are considered to be a disgusting practice in the eyes of nature lovers.There are also many very realistic-looking faux furs nowadays, and there is always the option of dyed lambswool.If you can eat those lamb chops, you may as well wear their coats.


Fur worn over the shoulders and hanging down?

I believe you are asking about a garment called a 'stole', probably most often heard as a 'mink stole'. This is a garment narrower than a cape, worn about the shoulders, with ends often left dangling. I have seen mink stoles and fox stoles. I believe they became popular in the late forties-early fifties when fur coats were very desirable, and those who could not pay a thousand dollars for a coat might wish to buy a short jacket or a stole to enjoy the prestige of owning mink or other fur.

Why do preists wear chausables?

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!
