Navy Blue Silk Korean Hanbok Ensemble

Both pieces carry the architectural DNA of Korean hanbok construction, but the purple vest reads like traditional dress filtered through 1920s sensibilities—that cropped, boxy silhouette and fur trim feel distinctly Art Deco in their geometric confidence.

These two hanbok pieces reveal how Korean traditional dress adapted to modern life while preserving its essential geometry. The navy silk ensemble maintains the classic jeogori's boxy, cropped silhouette and crisp white collar trim that defines the garment's architectural precision, while the cream cotton undergarment strips the form down to its functional bones—the same wide, kimono-like sleeves and abbreviated torso, but rendered in practical cotton for everyday wear beneath the outer layers.

These two hanbok pieces reveal how traditional Korean silhouettes held their ground against Western influence in the early 20th century.
