		However it is first necessary to distinguish between the basic, rudimentary garments that are common to all orders of the clergy, such as the sticharion, and the individual garments that are both diacritical of a specific order, such as the orarion, the epitrachelion and the omophorion, and are only worn in particular circumstances.
		The realization of this moral imperative during the Byzantine Age at least is ascertained in many aspects of the sacerdotal costume: in the limited patterns repeated for centuries, in the dark or dull colours, in the sparse decoration and in the simple techniques for making them.

		I would suggest that the sticharion be finished with gold galloon and crosses.
