Cassocks
Above, a picture (click on it to enlarge) of my parish priests wearing cassocks, flanking a group of Sunday school kids wearing hanboks, and their teacher, wearing a skirt, to accompnay these articles — The Cassock and Bring Back the Cassock.

Yes, hooray for cassocks, or when they're not practical, the regulations of the Archdiocese of New York under Cardinal Spellman (1930s-1960s), based on the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore in 1884: cassock and biretta on church grounds; black suit, Roman collar and black fedora as street clothes.
And then bring back the rood screen! (I'm not being facetious)
In really Gothic churches, sure.
St. Mary's Anglican Cathedral in what was British Malaya had a rood screen.
