How life changed for Thai conductress when she met a fashion designer on her bus

 

 

Pictures: Manager Online

 

Fate intervened for a humble conductress on a Bangkok bus.

 

When a top fashion designer's car broke down near the Victory Monument he hailed a taxi but no driver would stop. 

 

 

So the designer got on a bus to take him to his destination. 

 

"Jiap" or Eaggamon Atkamon - owner of the Eaggamon fashion house was stunned by what he saw as he boarded Route 539. 

 

 

He thought that the conductress on the bus would be a perfect fit for his fashion brand. 

 

He spoke to Unn also known as Natyada Homprayathorn telling her she ought to be a model as she was tall and beautiful. 

 

Unn listened politely and thought he was genuine but never thought he would actually call her. The humble conductress didn't think her shape or her looks would be in demand. Besides there must be hundreds of other girls with a better chance than her.

 

She was wrong.

 

Two years later Unn is the face of the Eaggamon brand and has been pictured in countless costumes and attended high profile fashion events and runway duties.

 

 

She is tall at 174 cms and has statistics of 32-25-35. 

 

But Unn told Manager that she still has her feet firmly on the ground. She still helps her mum and dad on Bus Route 539 just as she did for ten years before fame came calling. 

 

 

 

She said she feels no reason to feel shy about where she came from.

Good luck to her, I hope she continues to be successful in her new career for many years to come ????

[Lupatria]

Looks like I missed the bus again...????

[gunderhill]

No  accounting for taste.

At least she not a sickly, pasty white looking lass. There is hope....Her skin color is pretty much what most Thai ladies have. I can see some whitening going on there but its not as bad as its been.

Not fat, no tats - works for me ???? 

[wxyz1]

Thought she was really beautiful too when I got on her bus. There's an even prettier one working on one of the buses plying the Ratchadamri - Thonburi route.

[BritManToo]

Look at the size of her feet and hands and tall!

I would have assumed this was a ladyboy.

[atyclb]

good thing she hasn't quit her day job

[OneMoreFarang]

She had the wrong job to start with. He should have used motorcycle taxis. One of them would have arranged for her to get a very well paid job as a dancer. ????

I had to search first where you get the size of her feet. But then I saw it: size 40!

Is it possible to buy women's shoes in that size in Thailand (which are designed for women, not lady-boys)?

who was it that said the things we want the most in life are the ones we cannot have

[AlexRich]

Great story. I should get the bus more.

[hotchilli]

I wish I was on her route... ding ding !

The last bloke you tried to hit on?

[Sir Dude]

Yeah, she's hot (yeah, know it's subjective)...fair play and good luck. She's not really Thai scooter-boy style so she might have escaped his doomed clutches...good for her if she did.

[emptypockets]

My god there are some really sad posters on

this forum.

Young lady makes good and immediately the ladyboy/ shoe size brigade spring in to action. 

Really what is wrong in wishing her all the best?

The bitterness is palpable and reflected through many threads on TVF.

 

I guess if you never made anything of yourself in your life and your only claim to fame is that you moved to Thaialnd then that may be understandable.

Size 40 is only 6.5 in UK, and 6 is the average in UK - and 40 is within the standard range available in Thailand for ladies shoes.  If a girl has the height and long legs for modelling, she will probably have size 39/40 feet as a minimum.

Mr Fashion Designer has a very good eye.

I hope she continues to stay grounded.

You do know this is 9 months old ???

[soalbundy]

Another example of "we are not in control", what is, is, what happens, happens without you because you are not the doer.

ummm. she was a conductress of a normal sized bus. not like the short bus you used to ride to school. 

 A driver or an hostess , the woman who sells the tickets ?

Because the meaning of conductress is more hostess than driver ...

Haha, thanks CharlieH. I very seldom look at the posting date. However, keeping the topic alive.

Maybe she has a baby now ? 

 

It's the probleme ,

keep old posts on the forum although this one is not very old.
Sometimes a member comes out of the naphthalene post several years old and I am the first not to look at the date of the original post;
my answer and those of those who will follow me will obviously not correspond to the question initially posed.

It may be a bit of household, or even a great sweep to remove or rather close posts that are out of date.
What do you think ?

And she  is  9 months older  and  hopefully wiser in the "career".

I am simply  happy she may have  found a genuine lucrative niche opportunity.

Hope  she  retains the  element of personal  genuineness in spite  of  being  paraded   by hasbeen  harpies!

Perhaps  the   secret of her "beauty"  as  much as  or even more than any other  physical attributes.

[DrTuner]

Models are often tall and lanky. Makes the clothes look better in the photos, as the model is not too attractive to the eye. She seems fit for the job. 

[dcnx]

She’s beautiful. Good for her.
