Inspired by Hanbok form popularized in the late Joseon Dynasty.
(In essence, hanbok, a traditional Korean garment, is made with a flat pattern, but when worn, it drapes beautifully and gracefully to follow the curves of the body.)
This is not a reproduction of Hanbok, but a reinterpretation and inspired design, so Western three-dimensional patterns and draping are appropriately utilized.
As the history of Joseon Dynasty is 500 years long, there are many distinctive and noteworthy points in the design that were popular at different times.
In the late Joseon Dynasty, 상박하후 (tight upper body and fuller lower body) style was popular.
The 저고리 (jeogori, top) was short and tight enough to reveal a bit of the chest, and the long, flowing skirt was pulled up to create a fuller look.
Because of its short length, often exposed the undergarment, the bustier, which was similar to the corset in the West, both as a garment and as a form of oppression imposed on women.
shortness of jeogori and the design of 깃(git, collar) (*radically different from that of the kimono)
The matching top is a simple tube top with a shaggy design with multiple rows, and I wanted to capture the period within the garment.
The long skirt was rolled up and tied in the middle to create a full, atypical draped skirt, inspired by the voluminous shape of the top.

I'm curious to know what you think of this culture and its origins, both those who know and those who don't, so feel free to leave a comment.
