Nubi jeogori (Quilted 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 thicker material and quilted technique make this a winter jeogori. The color stripes on the sleeves are called saekdong which is often used to decorate festive attire and children’s clothing.
