Grace Assistant Square Neck Surplice for Girls
Grace Assistant: Square Neck Surplice for Girls
The surplice is worn over a cassock by altar and choir assistants, falling to around hip or mid-thigh length over the cassock underneath. It's traditionally white, made from a light, breathable fabric meant to stay comfortable through longer services. As a recognizable piece of church attire, it also marks out the wearer's role during the liturgy or choir service.
Fabric and Construction
Made from 100% polyester, this surplice is durable and easy to care for, holding up to frequent wear and washing without losing its shape. It's cut with enough room through the body and sleeves to allow comfortable movement during a service, rather than fitting snugly.
Design Details
- Square Neck Yoke: A square-cut yoke drapes over the shoulders, with the cassock's collar showing above it.
- Pleated Front and Back: Structured pleating below the yoke adds fullness to the body of the surplice.
- Full Sleeves: Wide, roomy sleeves worn over the cassock's sleeves underneath.
- Worn Over a Cassock: Designed to be layered on top of a cassock, with the cassock's collar and cuffs showing at the neck and wrists.
Sizing and Fit
Available in youth sizes 6 through 20.
Care Instructions
Machine washable for simple, ongoing care.
What is this surplice worn over?
It's worn over a cassock, which is why the collar showing at the neck is a different color than the surplice itself. The surplice is the white layer worn on top.
What age range or sizes does this come in?
It's available in youth sizes 6 through 20, so it can fit a range of ages as girls grow into and out of the role of altar or choir assistant.
What is the surplice made from?
It's made from 100% polyester, chosen for durability and easy care, since it needs to hold up to frequent wear and washing.
What does the pleating on the front and back do?
The pleating below the yoke adds fullness to the body of the surplice, giving it a traditional, structured look rather than hanging flat.
How should I wash this surplice?
It's machine washable, making it easy to keep clean for regular use throughout the school year or church season.
