The Thai fashion and textile industry is once again thriving! Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana has unveiled the "Siriraj Patsaraphorn" fabric design, a royal gift that seamlessly blends Thai heritage with modern design. This occasion marks Her Royal Highness's receipt of an honorary doctorate in Fashion Design from Thammasat University.
This invaluable fabric is not only beautiful but also rich in meaning. It is the result of in-depth research into patterns that reflect Thai culture, history, and natural beauty, applied using modern design principles. The outcome is a contemporary art piece that fully preserves the essence of Thai identity.
Currently, the "Siriraj Patsaraphorn" design is being shared with local textile artisans across the country to create various types of fabrics, such as batik, tie-dye silk, and intricately patterned textiles. This initiative promotes Thai handicrafts, providing opportunities for Thai fabrics to enter the global fashion stage.
This royal fabric gift not only preserves cultural heritage but also inspires Thai artisans to develop their skills, producing high-quality work that showcases Thai uniqueness to the world. It reflects Her Royal Highness's vision and dedication to nurturing and promoting Thai arts and culture.
