“When people open their closets,
they usually think, ‘Should I
wear a T-shirt, blouse or dress?’
I hope one day, they will think,
‘Should I wear a hanbok today?’”
Q&A with LEESLE
1. What inspires your designs?
I'm inspired by design in every problem. When you
feel uncomfortable in some situations and find
solutions for them. If the length of the hanbok
skirt is too long and the problem is that it is being
stepped on, the answer is how to modify the length
of the skirt.
2. Because of the coronavirus, the
fashion industry is changing these
days to make design greener and
attract more audiences online.
How is your brand changing?
Eco-friendly fashion is an area that needs to be
studied. Designers can't do it alone; they have to
collaborate with a lot of people. Hanbok is not
something that you buy frequently according to
trends, but something that you can wear for a long
time. I aim for good, basic quality clothes. I also
changed the delivery box into an eco-friendly box.
3. A lot of foreigners want to know
about hanbok. What do you think about
this? And how does your brand help
promote hanbok to the world market?
I feel very positive and welcoming about this. Our
Instagram is in English, as well as our website.
Payment, order, and delivery are available
anywhere in the country. We make things very
fast and convenient. The Internet connects
us and through this information about the
hanbok can be accessible to the world.
4. What is your goal for the
future of Hanbok?
To make it as a fashion genre. I want hanbok
to become a fashion item that’s a staple in
the closet. For it to become a wearable and
regular clothing option like jeans.
