[KS] Choson period official dress

[Michael Robinson]

Dear List: 

It is a small point but I thought someone out there might be more up on this than myself.  Were the robes for Choson officials patterned after the regalia of the Ming?  I'm saying this in a throw away sentence in my new text...but perhaps this is wrong.  I'm wondering about the evolution of official dress since we are dealing with half a millennium here.
