KIMHĒKIM

KIMHĒKIM is a Seoul-based South Korean haute couture brand. Inspired by the traditional Korean attire "Hanbok," the brand elevates its graceful and opulent beauty into contemporary designs. The founder and designer, Kiminte Kimhekim, studied at the prestigious Paris fashion school Studio Berçot and gained experience at the luxury fashion house Balenciaga before establishing KIMHĒKIM in 2014. The brand's defining feature is its focus on volume and silhouette. By incorporating the structural beauty of Hanbok—such as oversized collars, three-dimensional ribbon appliqués, and dramatic pleats—it pursues modern fits and balance. By fusing traditional tailoring with contemporary cutting techniques, the brand presents imaginative and playful womenswear. Its delicate craftsmanship, unique to haute couture, and elegant presence symbolize the KIMHĒKIM aesthetic where tradition and innovation coexist.
