Thai celebrities have taken the fashion world by storm in the last few years from brand, campaigns and ambassadorships to red carpets. While the world’s most renowned luxury brands have been gearing towards Asian stars in the last decade or so, we have been seeing more and more Thai superstars emerge in the fashion scene.

Think: Statement tops and baggy jeans or long flowing dresses, accessorised with a mini bag and some sunnies.
