I took part in an official workshop for creative people in Bangkok. The neighborhood, Wong Wian, slightly outside of the city centre, serves as a hub for indie artists, musicians, and those interested in creating fashion.
I became aware of the workshop for creative minds through a family friend who organizes fashion shows in Bangkok. I believe that people need to come out on a regular basis with more edgy, fun wear. The spot is away from the tourist eye and very much a Thai-local studio. While the attendees of the workshop were asked to keep the location "an intimate piece of information" so as to keep the artistic energy under wraps, I can reveal that is near one of the many malls found in the "City of Angels".
