the hats are definitely accurate and the blue and white hanbok is spot on. garish is...sort of typical for court dress of any eastern Asian culture. girl in the middle though? the Joseon court did not have Elizabethan tailors, get outta here.

so yeah, it's mosly accurate (and arguably moreso than cdrama fantasy wear - those are glorious but they're fantasy, not historical) but as anon above me said, sometimes accurate is off-putting. I would much rather indulge in the Samurai Warriors (Musou) costumes than real chonmage hairstyles, I would much rather cute sexy little hats than accurate Han court hats, etc. Depends on the context; if the movie/tv series is purporting to be a faithful dramatisation of a historical event, then give me all the accuracy. Soap operaswith magic? Nah go ham on the fantasy, it's fine.

Elizabethen?? I don't think it looks like that even in the cropped image. Empress Ki, about the Korean woman who became empress in China. And about as (not) accurate as Fan Bingbing's costumes in Empress of China but hardly Elizabethen.
