The smallest things carry the most considered intentions — a detail at the lapel, a choice to wear something that means something.
In Korean domestic culture, the pumpkin was the shape kept close — a form of good fortune and welcome, stitched into sewing rooms and offered as gifts between households. Yun Ina, whose work is held in the National Museum of Korea and recognised by the Korea Craft & Design Foundation, lifts this humble motif into a lapel boutonniere — Hanbok silk hand-gathered into a three-dimensional form, finished with a synthetic pearl accent and a clean metal pin back. Unisex in design, it belongs equally on a Joseon-influenced formal coat and a contemporary suit jacket, on a scarf or a bag strap, worn by anyone who wants to carry a little of that warmth into their daily wardrobe.
Pinned at the lapel of a neutral blazer, it becomes a conversation piece at gallery openings or cultural events. Attached to a scarf or hat, it adds a textured, artisanal accent to everyday outfits. The Saekdong multi-colour option pairs beautifully with Hanbok for a traditional-contemporary layered look that reads as both rooted and entirely current. Made to order in Seoul, completed within a week — what arrives is something that carries the domestic warmth of Korean craft into the everyday wardrobe.
