In the foreword from the book "Thai Textiles Trend Book Autumn/Winter 2022-2023 (Volume 2)" by HRH Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya, emphasis is placed on the idea of preserving and reviving the royal aspirations of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great and Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother. "I intend to carry on the work and revive the royal aspirations of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great, and Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother, to preserve the cultural treasures of the country," the Princess writes.
"Much of my inspiration derives from my grandmother, Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother, who [in the past] visited high mountainous areas in the northern region in order to help improve the quality of life of Thai hill-tribe communities. Her Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother advised locals to plant winter fruits and vegetables instead of opium, which is a highly addictive drug. During one of her visits, The Queen Mother observed that the hill-tribe communities greeting her were dressed in traditional costumes that reflected the beauty of the traditional crafts of their communities. [It was here that] Her Majesty advised the local hill-tribe communities to weave these fabrics for her, rather than cultivate opium. This inspired me and later drew me - towards traditional Thai fabrics."
To preserve valuable cultural heritage for the Thai people - especially handicrafts, Thai craftsmanship, and woven fabrics found in various communities - HRH Princess Sirivannavari thus decided to follow in the footsteps of her grandmother. By combining her work experience with the study of woven cloth and local handicraft products from each region in the country, she has now created a modern iteration of Thai fabrics that responds to the needs of today's consumers - both domestically and globally.
