I realize the desire of many Catholics for nuns to go back to habits; it's good for women who have consecrated their lives to the Lord to be 'set apart' from others so that they can be continual witnesses to the love they have for Him. But the habits in that last picture are just too over the top even for me. I'm afraid the wimple is way too Middle Ages for my taste. I always felt sorry for the nuns who had to wear them; they always looked so uncomfortable.

The Dominican sisters have a modified habit that looks both appropriate and comfortable.

All orders should go back to the old habits. Sisters and
nuns are set apart and people recognize the fact.

The sisters I knew growing up were the Presentation Sisters.
I remember before the awful downgrade, I was driving through
a little town in Iowa, the Church was on the main street and
driving past it, there stood a thin and fairly tall sister talking to a child, she was in the full habit, she was so beautiful.

Same for the priests, a young priest told me he wears his
cassock when he travels, in airports, etc. He felt people
were more at ease, drawn to speak him because of seeing him in the traditional cassock. The cassock is wonderful. And, no one likes when you see a priest without his collar.
