Bangkok Fashion & Clothing
Bangkok has long shed its reputation for merely offering bargain clothing and fake merchandise or apparel at the city's numerous markets and street vendors. The Thai capital has emerged as a truly hip fashion hub in Asia, setting new parameters for the trendy and style-savvy, and everybody else who wants to sport the latest and greatest.
The talents of young, up-and-coming designers are being nurtured and their collections can be found along with those from top international couturiers and fashion houses at most of the city's upmarket malls and prime shopping areas. From either zany or chic avant garde to minimalistic Zen...
The twice-annual Bangkok Fashion Week and numerous trade fairs held throughout the year have helped significantly to raise the style bar and, along with fine, value-for-money workmanship and beautiful textiles like pure silk and cotton in abundance, the stage has been set to be fabulously in vogue.
Lakis Gavalas: The Fall of Greece’s Fashion King
In the last decade Lakis Gavalas had been celebrated as “fashion icon”, “king of lifestyle” or “guru of fashion’ in the domestic Greek fashion market. However, the clothes designer, collector of ulter-expensive Hermes bags and distributor of brand names like Burberry, D&G or Dior, turns out to be a bit deprived of clothes and accessories. In fact of clothes and accessories made off warm euros.
Tax inspectors found out that Gavalas failed to pay Value Added Tax for the time Jan – Oct 2010 and fined him with EUR 5 million.
A fine difficult to be paid in times of economic crisis and recession. Now he tries to sell his huge company premises. Wanna help? You’d need only 4 million euros for 12,244 square meters of luxurious studio, fashion stage etc etc.
The economic crisis has struck not only the common citizens but also the kings. Even if they are members of the fashion royalty only.
As Greeks love to say “times are hard even for royalties”….
