Hallyu and Korean Fashion

With today’s global cultural eye landing frequently on South Korea, the traditional hanbok dress (as seen worldwide in popular TV costume dramas) is no longer the only clothing reference one may associate with the country and its culture. Today, Korean fashion is so much more—influenced by everything from international street style to couture, and in turn influencing the rest of the world with its take on those two points of view. Delve into how contemporary designers contextualize their experience through their creative lens and how the world of Korean fashion extends beyond clothing.
