Is a Heart Bouquet Cute?
What do you think of when you hear "heart bouquet"?
The most classic form that comes to mind is this shape, where flowers like roses are tightly bundled in a heart shape.
(Recently, airy bouquets have become popular, so does this seem a bit outdated or unfashionable?)
There Are Such Heart Bouquets Too!
In Korea, a design where branches or stems are shaped into a heart and flowers are placed inside became popular about two years ago.
It was talked about as a "new kind of heart bouquet" that was not the traditional compact heart.
A New "Heart-like Bouquet" That Is Cute ♡
Now in 2020, a new heart bouquet is trending again in Korea.
If you look closely, it's a bouquet that "kinda looks like a heart" ♩
The point is,
"It looks like a heart if you say it's a heart, but you might not realize it if you don't?" - that level of heart-ness.
Imagine pulling the ends of a classic clutch bouquet a bit upwards to create a heart shape ♡
It's not an overly cute heart, but rather cute in a way that you might think, "Depending on how you look at it, it could resemble a heart...?"

I Want to Hold Such a Bouquet ♡
Until now, heart bouquets were typically seen as something that "girls who love hearts, ribbons, Disney, or Sanrio" would hold, but the heart bouquets trending in Korea now have a natural vibe that is completely stylish!
The indentation in the middle of the heart provides a practical aspect, as it keeps the design of the face and chest from being hidden when holding the bouquet*
Since there are still few brides in Japan holding these, and guests may find the shape "rare and cute," be sure to incorporate it! ♡
