Most of them wear pretty normal, although modest, street clothes. Many (if not most) of the cloistered ones still wear habits.

It depends. Some wear an old-fashioned habit, some wear a modified habit (modest knee-length dress with veil), others wear ordinary clothes (but modestly cut), with a particular cross pendant or pin to indicate that they are nuns.

In India nuns have taken to wear sarees, I think it began with the Missionaries of Charity.

Plain clothes that cover, possibly a small veil over the back of the hair.

It depends upon their religious order.
Some wear modest civilian clothes and some still wear habits.
With love in Christ.

Almost every conceivable type of habit and every type of modest clothing.
