Driving Passion

JIRAYAONG ANUMAN-RAJADHON’s innate sense of style, drive and dedication are all qualities that have helped catapult her luxury accessories brand Phya to the forefront of the Thai fashion scene. Founded in 2016, Phya has already garnered an impressive following of celebrities and other loyal customers, inlcuding current Miss Thailand Universe Maria Lynn Ehren and actress Praya Lundberg.
