Abstract

By looking at Old Joseon’s clothing style from what the archaeologists have excavated, it is very fancy and modern. It is known that a wide variety of patterns and materials used as decorations along with pieces of cloths used as part of Old Joseon’s clothing has been excavated from the Korean Peninsula and Manchuria. Through this they were able to distinguish that people during the Old Joseon era have decorated their clothings.a The people from Old Joseon era have prepared a fixed set of style starting from their hats to outer and inner clothing, lower clothing, belts and shoes. Through this decorative method they have expressed a lively model. Their clothes were usually made with leather, woolen cloth, hemp cloth, cotton and other fabrics and with the use of bones, horns, jade, bronze, steel, gold and silver and glass to as decorations, they have standardized the colorful yet fancy clothing style. Out of all the materials they have used for decorations, the buttons made of bronze have been used the most. This button has shown us that it is used as a very fancy decorative method along with creativity and characteristics. The size, shape, design and usage of the bronze buttons are all different therefore it possesses a characteristic in which it can be assembled with ease. This shows that the people from Old Joseon era were free and creative. Not only did the Old Joseon have techniques for decorative and weaving techniques for clothing but also possessed scientific techniques for dyeing as well. From the New Stone Age era, they have obtained dye from natural resources and with it they have drawn on walls and added colors to their clothes. Painting and dyeing has been a way of life. The people who were living in the Old Joseon era have used the dyeing and weaving techniques for all their clothes from their hats to their shoes adding beautiful color schemes to their clothes. On top of that they have raised the artistic achievements by using decorative buttons and marbles etc. This thesis will show the shape of Old Joseon’s clothing distinct characteristics and furthermore we are trying to provide clear evidence to amend the opinions in which people believe that the Korean clothing style is from China or Northern Chinese garment system. Additionally we are trying to play a part in recovering the contradictions towards Old Joseon's clothing pattern by recovering the accurate clothing models in the museums and historical dramas.
