yhleeProfusion of Color: Korean Costumes and Wrapping Cloths of the Choson [Joseon] Dynasty, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco and The Museum of Korean Embroidery, Seoul, Korea, 1995.
Have some picspam! The hanbok are pretty standard, but IMO the traditional wrapping cloths (보자기, bojagi) are some spectacular; some of the 18th and 19th century examples recall Mondrian, although I have no idea whether there's any connection.
We have some random modern bojagi hanging around the house, at that, although I don't use them other than to take them out and admire the pretty.
IIRC the book does discuss culture and/or construction a bit, will update with more later. (This is yanked from an older post on my own DW that was solely for picspam/design reference purposes.)_
