Le privilège du blanc is a French term meaning the privilege of white used for a Catholic custom whereby certain designated royal women are permitted to wear a white dress and veil during audiences with the Pope. This is an exception to the tradition of women wearing black on such occasions. Those who have been permitted to wear white include the Queens of Belgium, Italy and Spain, the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, the Princess of Monaco, and the princesses of the House of Savoy. The Prefecture of the Pontifical Household sometimes issues instructions in advance when the privilege may be used, such as during papal audiences, papal coronations, significant liturgical events or inaugural masses of the Pope within the Vatican.A reigning Catholic queen or princess retains this privilege at the discretion of the Pope, by remaining a Catholic in good public standing, through marriage to another Catholic monarch, or simply granted by the Pope at his dispensation. Catholic royalty may freely choose whether to exercise the privilege depending on the importance of occasion; if they refuse, this is termed as declining the privilege, and the choice to wear black garments at certain points of Papal audiences does not negate her privilege to be dressed in white.
