Please excuse the rather dramatic headline for this one, but we couldn’t resist. A completely blue biretta struck us as taking things to the extreme, literally getting away with blue murder, and naturally we say this not with horror and disdain but in fact our sincerest and heartfelt approbation. As you can no doubt see, it is watered silk and completely blue all over. It has a distant cousin in West London somewhere, of which more later, but in this instance it is the biretta of the superior of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest, a society which we admire greatly.
If you notice in the photo I sent named Ordination, you'll see Mons. Wach in the background. You can meake out his blue biretta.
