Fookhaht Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) After the last two I was almost afraid of opening this thread. Whew, at least she wasn't wearing an elephant head or dragging a miniature BTS in her "train"... Edited June 14, 2016 by Fookhaht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Gravy Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Does that come with matching fake nose, lips and some botox? I have to say that the other countries have nothing to worry about in the dress department if that's it. I do feel a lot better could have been done but just my opinion.

Just1Voice Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 That looks about as "Thai" as a pair of Levi's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 So that's the approved dress for the two lads on either side. What about that lady in the middle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winniedapu Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Jeez. I think the tuk-tuk was better than this. How on earth much did they pay someone's wife to design that? Whatever it was, it was too much bu a long way. W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf12 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) That is it? No there has to be more, that is nothing special. Cant imagine seeing many women wearing tt around the markets. There again the designer is only 22. She has a long way to go to rival the big names in fashion. Edited June 14, 2016 by gandalf12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuttering parrot Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Going against the grain here. Had a look at the other picture and actually I don't think it's to bad. I'm no fashion guru but the design sort of reminds me of the 40 or 50s movie star look. But some of your comments had me in stitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) It's the only official outfit I've ever seen in this country which doesn't include medal ribbons and para wings! She looks like a Patpong showgirl doing an impression of Anna Leonovens,, (at least what I imagine one would look like, wouldn't know myself of course). I wander if the chains attached to her right arm are meant to have any subliminal meaning? Edited June 14, 2016 by JAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
