The Kkochgureum Chiffon Blouse.
$195 to $285 · quoted in consultation
A modern jeogori with a chiffon outer layered over an opaque liner. The hanbok shoulder holds. The body runs lighter than the traditional cut. An embroidered detail at the goreum tail.
Heirloom and summer, at once.
Occasion
A summer dol. An outdoor bride who wants family hanbok that will not read as costume in photographs. A mother-of-the-bride lunch.
The story
Kkochgureum translates as flower cloud, the moment in early summer when the white flowers on a hillside catch the wind and lift in a single soft mass. The jeogori has carried summer reading before in linen and ramie. Chiffon is the contemporary answer, lighter still, with the shoulder discipline kept.
This piece keeps the hanbok shoulder and runs the body in a sheer chiffon over a smooth liner. The Seoul workshop embroiders the tail of the goreum with a small motif that lands when the tie hangs. The placket is finished by hand. The chiffon breathes through a long outdoor afternoon.
Worn by the mother of the bride at a summer outdoor wedding. The bride wears her own gown. The mother wears the family hanbok and the read lands. The photographer catches the embroidered tail of the goreum in a frame the family did not order, and that frame is the one that ends up enlarged on the wall.
Hand-finished in Seoul. Inspected and fitted in San Mateo.
