The First Special Collaboration Between Workshop and Sretsis Workshop, a multi­label store that gathers fashion brands for both men and women, designed, manufactured and distributed by Reno (Thailand) Co., Ltd., under one roof launches Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop collection, marking a first time collaboration between the leader in the fashion industry and the celebrated Thai fashion designer in creating this feverishly sought after collection.

Workshop Multi­label Store, a fashion lovers favourite, works together with Sretsis in an exclusive collection, Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop , which harmoniously combines the Grunge Youthful uniqueness of Workshop with Sretsis s classic and playful design to bring about a more accessible and fun collection that can fulfill every girl s dream.

Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop was the brainchild of Tanunya Tanakitamnuay Director of Product Development of Workshop and Pimdao Sukhahuta, the Creative Director of Sretsis. The two met in New York and talked about the possibility of this collection three years ago, but they only recently began to formalise the idea and start to work towards the collection they visualised.

Workshop has its strength in being a strong lifestyle fashion brand.

When this is incorporated with Sretsis concept from Sweetness , which is our Autumn/Winter 2012 collection and also the collection that celebrated the tenth year of the brand, this special reworked collection will be like a medley of all the signature pieces throughout these 10 years of Sretsis, Pimdao Sukhahuta revealed.

Page 7 www.bangkokscene.com

The First Special Collaboration between Workshop and Sretsis Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop is distinctively unique with the two specially designed prints and patterns; the Cherry Cigarettes and the Gingham Brush . The Cherry Cigarettes is the print to celebrate with a hint of artistic implication. As Pimdao Sukhahuta explained, it is an echo of a Memphis Style in 80 s 90 s, which is a grunge street look, juxtaposed with the glamour of the 60 s.

She called the combination Lady Diana s Grunge . As for the Gingham Brush , the main theme from Autumn/Winter 2007 collection ( The Spy who Kissed Me ) is mixed into the Cherry Sprinkles print of the Sweetness collection. There are also the Glitter Lips print, where glittering colorful lips are smoking cigarettes, and the fun and sweet Lollipop Lips print all over the collection.

Like every other collection from Workshop and Sretsis, Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop is meticulously designed and tailored with its own strong concept. For example, all the prints are recreated and all the patterns are developed in accordance with the lifestyle of fashion people. The one shoulder dresses are conjured up from the idea of travelling.

When packing up for a long­haul trip can be quite an issue, a nice dress should be flexible and versatile, worn alone to a dinner with friends, or matched with other pieces for a more polished look.

Juiced up with cute prints, jumpsuits are redesigned to be easier to wear and to take care of. The key fabrics of this collection are the Interlock Knit and the Satin Twill that maximize flexibility, while the aim of this collection lies in the use of high quality and durable fabrics, its classic quality, and the silhouettes that accentuate any woman s body type.

Apart from the clothing and accessories, Sretsis Rework Limited Edition for Workshop also pays great attention to even the smallest details in order to make a piece meaningful. Patterns of the price tag, for instance, are specially crafted, having each pattern represent different sizes and symbolising the Memphis style.

Hangers are exclusively made with a special design, reflecting the attentiveness to truly please Workshop s and Sretsis fans.

Rolls­Royce Motor Cars held the South East Asian premiere of the limited edition Alpine Collection Ghost. As one of an exclusive collection of only thirty­five uniquely crafted and highly bespoke models, today s preview showcases the world of personalised design possibilities available with the Rolls­Royce bespoke programme.

General Manager for Emerging Markets­Asia, Herfried Hasenoehrl and Chatvithai Tantraporn, General Manager Rolls­Royce Motor Cars Bangkok, unveiled the stylish model in Siam Paragon Mall where the Rolls­Royce Motor Car s Bangkok Boutique showroom is situated.

The Alpine Centenary Collection was inspired by a remarkable journey.

A century ago, four Rolls­Royce Silver Ghosts embarked on the Austrian Alpine Trials, the most arduous test of automotive endurance of the time.

The 1913 Alpine Trial was an extraordinary moment in the rich history of Rolls­Royce cars. We re delighted to hold the South East Asian debut of its inspired collection car here in Thailand, where our customers appreciate the excellence of engineering combined with the bespoke, luxurious craftsmanship that comes with a Rolls­Royce motor car, said Mr. Hasenoehrl.

Mr. Chatvithai said, The Bespoke Alpine Trial Centenary Collection is a fitting tribute to the enduring quality of a Rolls­Royce motor car.

We re very pleased to have it on display here in Bangkok today.

Increasingly, we see more interest from Thai customers in bespoke cars, especially at the super­luxury level.

In performing without fault over 1,820 grueling miles (2,929kms) of near impassable mountain terrain, the Rolls­Royce Works Team and privateer entrant James Radley helped cement the marque s reputation for peerless reliability and mechanical excellence, a reputation the company proudly retains today.

The Silver Ghosts performance established Rolls­Royce as creator of the Best Car in the World .

The Bespoke department at the Home of Rolls­Royce in Goodwood, England celebrates these endeavours with the launch of the Alpine Trial Centenary Collection.

The first time a Bespoke model has taken inspiration from a heritage Rolls­Royce, this limited edition of Rolls­Royce Ghost features exquisitely crafted design cues that pay tribute to the 1913 Alpine Trials cars. The exterior paint hue, for example takes close inspiration from Radley s Silver Ghost, a car that participated in this year s re­enactment in Austria of the 1913 Alpine Trial, as part of the Rolls­Royce Motor Cars Works Team.

The Radley car s distinct black grille and wheels are also replicated across the collection the first time a painted grille has adorned a contemporary Rolls­Royce motor car.

The cabin plays host to Bespoke details that elegantly tell the story of the Alpine Trial. The clock displays the stages of the rally and timings, whilst inlays to rear picnic tables and the front fascia express the topography and distances of the Alpine route. Each element is meticulously hand­crafted and researched to ensure accuracy, epitomising hallmark Rolls­Royce attention to detail.

A hand­painted coachline referencing the four Rolls­Royces that took part in the rally and headlining, colour­matched to the hood of Radley s car, completes a beautiful homage.

In June of 2013, the Alpine Trial Centenary Collection Car joined the original James Radley Silver Ghost and 46 other enthusiastic competitors in the 100th Anniversary rerunning of the original Alpine Trials Rally.

Through 17 days and more than 1,800 miles (2,896 km), 47 magnificent Silver Ghosts wafted their way through the Alps, accompanied by the Rolls­Royce Motor Cars Works Team : an event which will live in the memories of those that saw the marvel at first hand for many years to come.

History was brought to life by the intrepid owners as they piloted their machines with consummate skill up challenging Alpine passes and across the borders of five countries, before emerging in Vienna just as the original competitors did exactly 100 years before. The 2013 Centenary Alpine Trial was also graced with British Royalty, Lords and Ladies, Ambassadors and participants from 12 countries as far flung as Australia and the United States.

The adventure was fully documented throughout, with over 1,000 spectacular photographs, a daily blog and innovative use of the History Pin website.

Exhibition by Chayanich Muangthai Opens at Galerie N Chayanich Muangthai is a young, talented female artist with unique art creations. Her Intaglio is created by the use of fire to create lines, traces and texturing. The intensity of lines and textures, combined with her inner burning creates an explosive madness. When all the heat and burning subsides, a temporary answer emerges, an empty pain and questions of life. Again and again Creating another burning creating another rebirth.

And the world seems to have more meaning. So a Burnt Heart does not destroy, but is cleansed by fire, all those traces and lines evidence of the journey.

Just Abstract: A Group Exhibition of European and Thai Abstract Artists Featuring artwork by David M Mitchell (UK), Gino Scagnetti (Italy), Nadja Kim Schlenker (Germany/Switzerland), Sebastian Heiner (Germany), Solarsin Ngoenwichit (Thailand) and Tania Rutland (UK), Just Abstract is now on show at Eat Me Restaurant in Silom, where it will remain on view until December 29th.

Because intentions in abstract work differ from artist to artist, Just Abstract simply seeks to introduce and inform guests of Eat Me Restaurant about ways of viewing and appreciating art.

The story of abstract art is closely entwined with the development of society in the modern world. During the last two centuries traumatised by mechanisation, capitalism and warfare, abstract art emerged as a way to employ different aesthetic cultures from around the world, and to re­examine the purpose of self­expression.

Today, art extends beyond strict categorisation and, with traditional media like print and television being revolutionised, art is now immediately available to more people than ever before.
