What are the names of the vestments used in Benediction (the alb and chasuble which are of different design to those used in the Mass) and the cloth used to hold the monstrance during its elevation?

The mantle/cape vestment is called a **cope ** and is a proper liturgical vestment of a priest outside of Mass.

The shawl-like vestment used to hold the monstrance for Benediction is a the humeral veil.
Not to be confused with a vimp, the similar vestment worn by an acolyte or server holding the bishop’s mitre or crosier.
