Editing Pope Pius V (section)

===Papal garments===
Pius V is often credited with the origin of the Pope's white garments, supposedly because after his election Pius continued to wear his white [[Dominican Order|Dominican]] [[Religious habit|habit]]. However, many of his predecessors also wore white with a red [[mozzetta]], as can be seen on many paintings where neither they nor Pius is wearing a [[cassock]], but thin, wide, [[Papal attire|white garments]].

An article by Agostino Paravicini Bagliani in ''[[L'Osservatore Romano]]'' of 31 August 2013 states that the earliest document that speaks explicitly of the Pope wearing white is the ''Ordo XIII'', a book of ceremonies compiled {{Circa|1274}} under [[Pope Gregory X]]. From that date onward, the books of ceremonies speak ever more explicitly of the Pope as wearing a red mantle, mozzetta, [[camauro]] and shoes, and a white cassock and stockings.<ref>{{cite news|title=Vatican newspaper examines history of red, white papal garb|date=2 September 2013|newspaper=Catholic culture|url= http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=18897|quote= ...the first document that mentions the Pope's white cassock dates from 1274.}}</ref><ref>{{Citation |title=From red to white |url=http://www.osservatoreromano.va/portal/dt?JSPTabContainer.setSelected=JSPTabContainer%2FDetail&last=false=&path=/news/cultura/2013/198q13-Le-origini-e-la-simbologia-delle-vesti-del-.html&title=From%20red%20to%20white&locale=en |place=[[Vatican City|VA]] |newspaper=[[L'Osservatore Romano]] |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203025944/http://www.osservatoreromano.va/portal/dt?JSPTabContainer.setSelected=JSPTabContainer%2FDetail&last=false%3D&path=%2Fnews%2Fcultura%2F2013%2F198q13-Le-origini-e-la-simbologia-delle-vesti-del-.html&title=From%20red%20to%20white&locale=en |archive-date=3 December 2013}}</ref>
