The sentence in passive voice is "Erie is adorned today in a fresh shirt."

How to explain

Passive voice occurs when the subject of a sentence undergoes the action rather than performing it.

In passive voice, the focus is on the recipient of the action rather than the doer. It often uses a form of "to be" (such as "is," "are," "was," "were") combined with a past participle.

In passive voice, the sentence "Erie is wearing a new shirt today" can be transformed into passive as "A new shirt is being worn by Erie today."

Here, the emphasis shifts from Erie performing the action of wearing the shirt to the shirt being worn by Erie as the focus of the sentence.
