Liturgical vestments are worn by the clergymen in worship. In the early period of the Church, up to the 4th century, the liturgical vestments were, in decor and shape, equaled to secular attire, except that it was more preserved and made of higher quality fabrics. During the period up to the 9th century, the most important parts of the liturgical garment were developed, it's clear separation from the profane attire was made, and the special blessing of the garb intended for the liturgy was introduced. From the 9th to the 13th century, the development of attire was completed. From the 14th century to the present, the choice of materials and decoration of liturgical attire has been changing, which has been influenced by the development of technology and the textile industry and the constant changing of fashion trends. The need for richer materials and ornaments, and somewhat alteration of the form, begins to emerge for the sake of greater convenience in performing rituals. From the 15th to the end of the 18th century, Split was, among other Dalmatian coastal cities, part of the Venetian Republic. The liturgical garments from this period preserved in the Split treasuries and monasteries reflect the concepts that developed in European weaving manufactures, and as a city of the Venetian Republic and as a trading port, Split came into contact with valuable examples of church art, including liturgical garments. The paper presents an overview of preserved attire from the city of Split during the Venetian administration, as well as comparative specimens from Italy, Spain and France.
