Therobe that a priest wears is rather vague as he can wear a cassock on the street though most don't nowadays . When celebrating Mass he wears vestments of which the Chastibule is the outer garment and whose color changes according to the day. eg feast days is white martyers is red etc. under that he wears a stole which goes around his neck to the waist this is held in place by the cinture which is a rope type cord . Under this is the Alb which is white and extends to almost the top of his shoes .So we can choose from the Alb, the Chastibule or the Cassock
