Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.
(This chasuble is the featured item at one of Rome's most important and up-to-date ecclesiastical suppliers. V. posh neighbourhood, around the corner from Sopra Minerva.)

I think it's more the sort of thing the Womenpriests go for.
Verily, a humm-dinger ! Hard to believe the "Bad Vestments" site hasn't posted this one yet.
It actually looks like they could have been from the Quebec City Eucharistic Congress - those were the colours.
I wonder if that is the Pentecost vestments for the 60+ crowd?
I notice the word 'Creator' at the front. Is 'Saviour' and 'Sanctifier' on there?
Can't help wondering about the anemic hockey stick that seems to go with it. . . .
The Hockey Stick has a lot of symbolism to it. Whereas a traditional bishops crosier could hold on to you, this one lets you get away.
As for the chasuble, at least there's not a stole on top aping the prot style
