Women’s Clothing of the 18th Century Joseon Dynasty 1
These clothes are a reproduction of the clothes worn by the woman depicted in the famous painting A beautiful Woman by Sin Yun-bok (1758 ~ ?). The short, tightly-fitting jeogori and voluminous chima were made of fine ramie fabric. To display the voluminous silhouette of chima, many layers of undergarments made of ramie fabric, including mujigi chima (petticoat), were worn under chima.
