"Reminiscence"
Thailand testify to the development of fashion in early 20th century Siam in conjunction with the Western style.
In the Sixth Reign, as in Britain, the tight-fitting blouses and corsets of the previous generation were banished. High-class ladies opted for free-flowing blouses with loose sleeves, bras and shorter skirts, and wore their hair long. They added a Thai touch by replacing the traditional jongkraben (trouser-like lower garments) and the corsets with pha-sin, the tubular skirt worn by women in Thailand and its neighbouring countries.
