Experience the Majesty of Kings: Royal Attire

This exhibition offers a glimpse into the regal attire of the Joseon royal court, where splendor meets elegance. The National Palace Museum's Royal Attire Exhibition showcases meticulously restored garments such as the gonryongpo (dragon robe), myeonryugwan (ceremonial crown), and ritual attire worn by kings. The dragon patterns embroidered on red silk and the gold thread embroidery symbolize authority and divinity. Each outfit served a specific purpose, reflecting the royal dress culture that varied depending on the occasion, such as rituals, state affairs, or banquets. The garments, illuminated under the lights, exude a lifelike presence, as if the king himself might step out at any moment. Every collar and thread of gold reflects the craftsmanship and meticulous etiquette of artisans. Simply viewing this exhibition allows one to appreciate the aesthetics and dignity of the Joseon royal court. It is a space where the precision and beauty of tradition come together to showcase the pinnacle of royal attire culture.
