As you might have read on our product descriptions, some of our pants are made with rayon cotton, but do you know what that means? In this post we will tell you everything you need to know about our favored material. We should start by understanding that rayon cotton is a type of fiber developed through a process that takes natural raw materials, such as cellulose (wood pulp) to produce a fabric very similar to cotton or linen.
Certain Thai symbols are considered to represent the main characterstics of the country: the strength of the nation and the monarchy, the spirituality of the people, the wealth of native plants and animals and the traditional architecture of the region. So let’s take a look at the main national symbols of Thailand.
It is with great pleasure that we announce another new product in our online store, Peacock pants! Our new pants present the luxurious beauty of peacock feathers and the millennial Buddhist symbology and try to convey to you some of the good vibes that make this creature so loved and revered in Thailand.
The story starts in 2006 when Narueporn travelled to Toronto, Canada and immersed herself in art mostly through reading and self-tuition but also by visiting museums. One day she decided to craft a long necklace out of simple wire and beads. To her surprise, her simple but striking design caught the attention of several designer stores in Toronto who expressed a desire to stock the necklace straight away.
Some of our customers ask us whether Thai harem pants are really worn in Thailand. Some ask us whether they are not more Indian than Thai and others ask us whether these are traditional types of clothing for Thai women.
To answer these questions we need to delve into the history of Thai fashion and indeed Thai history. A lot will depend on how we define traditional and how far back we want to go. In other words, how many years, decades or centuries do we need to roll back before reaching what we consider traditional.
Thais are a very superstitious people and have many deeply held beliefs. Some of these revolve around colors and drive habits which, though developed historically, in many cases are still evident today. In fact there are a wide range of objects and situations which are commonly thought to be either good luck or bad luck depending on the meaning of the colors involved.
If you are still unsure whether to buy your first pair of Thai pants, this post if for you. After reading, we’re sure your decision will be made up. ;)
