How should altar servers dress?
Altar servers wear an alb with a cincture, or cassock and surplice. These vestments should be treated with respect and they should be put away neatly after Mass. It is important that servers wear clean and dressy shoes with socks. Sneakers, sandals, high heels, jewelry, nail polish, strong perfumes, and excessive make-up are not appropriate for altar servers, because these they may be a source of distraction to others.
