Women’s Ceremonial Jacket

The minor ceremonial uniform is an outfit worn by the queen and court ladies for small-scale ceremonies. Dangui, or ceremonial long jacket, is part of the minor ceremonial uniform, and was worn above the skirt and jeogori (upper jacket). It is classified by color, such as yellowish green, wine, and white jackets. Women wore a double-layered ceremonial long jacket during the winter season, and a single-layered jacket during summer. The length of a ceremonial long jacket is three times longer than ordinary jeogori, and both sides are vented from the armpit. The ceremonial long jacket for the queen and royal concubines was adorned with sequins, and decorative patches attached onto the chest, back, and both shoulders. The jacket was accompanied by a ceremonial coronet.
