Pope Benedict XVI may be resigning, but one of the things that’ll stay with us is his enduring sense of style. His tastes in hats was always, ahem, catholic:

And often had pizzazz:

(It’s important to stay safe in the sun.)
But despite his adventurous style his entourage was always trying to make him “push the boundaries”:

Which he often did:
Not that standing next to other fashion icons didn’t sometimes make him a little nervous…

And if he ever got stuck for inspiration, he would ask himself “what would Jesus wear?” The answer of course, is “probably a picture of his own face, like this one”:

And even when things went a little wrong…
And continued to go a little wrong…
. . . he never lost his cool. After all, it’s not “Vatican’t”, it’s “Vatican“:

Goodbye, @Pontifex.
