Pope Leo's attire offers subtle clues about his papacy
Pope Leo XIV 's sartorial choices, including wearing a red satin mozzetta and gold cross, signal a departure from Pope Francis 's simpler style, sparking debate among Vatican watchers.
Liturgical tailors in Rome anticipate a potential business boom due to Pope Leo XIV 's return to more traditional papal attire, hoping it will influence priests and others.
Some conservative Catholics view Pope Leo XIV 's traditional clothing and use of Latin as a sign of respect for tradition, contrasting with Pope Francis 's informal style and restrictions on the Latin Mass.
Experts are uncertain whether Pope Leo XIV 's traditional preferences will translate into policy changes, such as reversing Pope Francis 's limitations on the traditional Latin Mass.
In addition to clothing, Pope Leo XIV has embraced traditions like accepting the kissing of his ring, while it remains to be seen if he will move into the papal apartment, unlike Pope Francis.
