Jeogori (Top)
The upper garment of a hanbok (Korean dress), for both men and women, is called a jeogori. They share the same basic features: long sleeves and an open form that has a left-over-right closure that is kept together with single-bow tie. The length of the jeogori and the sleeve shape changed over time and reflect the current fashion trends. Social class also dictated clothing choices.
The longer length and curved sleeves of this jeogori reflect a mid-20th-century fashion trend. The light-weight material makes this a summer top.
