Bangkok - Thai Airways flight attendants will turn airplane aisles into catwalks on two flights next week, modelling Thai-designed clothes to promote Bangkok as a regional fashion hub, officials said.

Five female attendants will model clothes by Thai designers using cloth woven by villagers on a return flight from Bangkok to Phuket next Wednesday, they said.

"In support of the government's policy to promote Bangkok as a fashion city the Thai Airways flight attendants will showcase the work of local Thai designers," the flag carrier said in a statement.

The promotion will kick off at Bangkok's international airport with professional models strutting their stuff in the departure hall. Models will also descend on Phuket's airport before the return flight, an official told AFP.

Thailand has long been a popular shopping destination for tourists seeking designer clothes as well as a manufacturing centre, but has only recently floated an ambition to promote its own fashions to the world.
