Place: Asia: South Korea

Type: Photographs

Description: Korean women from the lower class of old Korea wore cloaks over their heads for outing. The cloak is called essugae chimae or changot, which is a coat-style veil. Originally changot was the everyday wear for both kings and commoners. Since the time of King 'Sejo' (1417-1468), however, women began to wear the robe, and it then evolved as a veil for women. The inner and outer collars were symmetrical in shape, while the neckline and sleeve-ends were trimmed with a wide, white bias. The collar, ties and armpits were purple. Source: Kwon, O-chang.
