Court Official's Formal Attire

Dallyeong is a robe with a round collar worn by officials. The rules for its color changed over time. As official attire, the robe was accessorized with a two-tiered angular headgear with two wings and a hand-held tablet. As ordinary attire, it was worn with a two-tiered round headgear with two wings and insignia badges on the chest and back as a symbol of the wearer’s rank. Commoners were allowed to wear dallyeong as wedding attire, so even those who were not in public office could wear it with insignia badges attached on their wedding day.
