Abstract

Costumes mean clothes and accessories together. The costumes used in Silla society can also be seen from two aspects(clothing and accessories). This article was divided into two categories: Silla's clothing expressed in paintings and earthenware figures and Silla's precious metal ornaments. Hierarchy and limitations are observed in clothing expressed in Silla's Geumryeong-Tomb excavations and earthenware figures. Clothing with all kinds of clothes, limited clothes, and omitted clothes are revealed in the Silla earthenware figures. The image of Silla people who were active abroad is contained in Chinese painting materials. Silla, Baekje, and Goguryeo envoys on the official diplomatic stage wore their own clothing that distinguished them from others. Each country's own style was expressed in costumes culture. The characteristics of Silla's costumes are compressed into two keywords: ‘expression of Silla's own style’ and ‘acceptance and internalization of external culture’. The uniqueness of Silla's costumes is clearly revealed in the gold crown and gold belt ornaments. Earrings accommodate Goguryeo and Baekje, and at the same time, Silla's own form is created. In the process, gilt-bronze shoes, a special costume for the dead, are used in Silla society. ornaments of precious metal, which was used as the mainstay of Silla costume culture in the 4th and 6th centuries, changed into a new costume after the middle of the 6th century. It is converted into a unified Silla style belt ornaments that accommodates Tang culture. In addition, Baekje and Gaya style costume are especially found in the Unified Silla period.
