Description

From pages 186-184 in the Dune Encyclopedia from 1984
A basic interpretation of the stages of Bene Gesserit Sisterhood ranks.

This may not be canon anymore, but the sheer volume listed (created?) by Willis E. McNelly in the book was staggering.
There were over 74 different Bene Gesserit members mentioned in the encyclopedia.
They also had some students and associates who were instrumental in progressing the institution.
Not sure how to make that kind of list visually palatable, but this was the most manageable approach.

Most of the time the clothing did not have a description except "sleeved black aba" for the sisters and the initiae had "dun-colored, long-sleeved shirts and leggings covered by short brown tunics" in the encyclopedia. The four towards the right were costume designs used in the David Lynch movie of Dune.
