The ensemble covers from neck to wrists to ankles making it perfectly compatible with Islamic modesty requirements. Add a matching hijab scarf in complementary color for a beautiful fusion look.
Hanbok for Muslim men: Traditional men’s hanbok consists of a jeogori (jacket) and baji (loose pants) with a durumagi (overcoat) for formal occasions. The loose-fitting silhouette is modest and dignified. Many Muslim grooms wear hanbok with a traditional Korean hat (gat) for the most iconic Korean couple photo look.
Western formal wear: For a non-hanbok photo shoot Muslim women can wear long formal dresses with hijab and Muslim men can wear suits. Korean photo studios have extensive dress and suit collections available for rental.
Hijab styling: Several Korean hair and makeup studios in Myeongdong and Hongdae now offer hijab styling services for Muslim women. The stylist arranges your hijab in elegant styles that photograph beautifully. Request this service when booking your photo shoot.
