Thai Designers Fashion Feature: Thakoon

Thakoon Panichgul is one of the most famous Thai designers. Having moved to the USA at the age of eleven he was exposed to a wide variety of designs. He attended and graduated from Parsons School of Design and in 2004 he produced his first ready-to-wear collection.

His latest Resort 2013 collection entwines feminity and striking designs to create a fun and flirty collection that can be worn by almost anyone!




A common trend amongst all his pieces is how simple they are but with the right material, the designs come to life.
The numerous amounts of dresses really add to the feminity as does the frequented V-neck designs.




There is a frequented use of vertical stripes which adds another dimension to the simple designs.

One thing which is relatively obvious is the lack of tight fitting outfits. This is unusual as recently there has been a prominent trend of skin tight lycra clothing.

Overall, Thakoon's latest collection is a breath of fresh air providing women all over the world with the opportunity to dress in florals and pastels.
Thakoon's simple yet elegant and sophisticated collection is a must see for everyone. 
His designs are timelessly feminine and as romantic and sensual as they are modern and innovative.
