PRIME MINISTER’S EXPORT AWARD 2021
BEST DESIGN
This collection is inspired by one of Thailand’s most significant fabrics, Kaoma. Kaoma is a multipurpose textile that has been a huge part of Thai’s way of life for centuries. The graphics on our handwoven fabrics are derived from Kaoma’s original aesthetics, which are bold, and colourful checkered images. We have decided to use PET recycled yarns as the protagonist throughout the collection as it embodies sustainability concept in modern day fashion, whilst fitting into the philosophy of Circular Economy. Pleated structure is another detail that we have incorporated across the pieces to add our own twist into the outfits. Nowadays in the capital, Kaoma fabrics are mostly visible on construction workers, which is a group of people that can best visualise the multifunctional aspects of this fabric. Doitung is deeply aware of this matter and has created outfits that are inspired by the workwear of Thailand’s working class.
