If you look back at really old photographs of Thailand, you\u2019ll see even 100 years ago Thais either wore: a sheet wrapped around them, a loin cloth, or a full modern western suit. The \u2018traditional\u2019 outfits Thais wear today does not match what was worn in the age of Ayuttaya. \u00a0Like people of most countries around the world, Thais only wear \u2018western\u2019 style clothing.<\/p>\n

The one exception would be for traditional events, such as Thai holidays or weddings, in which Thais would wear a traditional ceremonial outfit.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I wonder why Americans don\u2019t wear \u2018traditional\u2019 clothes. Why don\u2019t we dress like colonialists for weddings? Is a late 1800\u2019s cowboy outfit considered traditional American clothing? Why do we not dress like Pilgrims when we go to church for Thanksgiving? I think that says a lot about American culture . . . but I digress . . .<\/p>\n

When you decide what you will wear today and tomorrow, think about the below list of words:<\/p>\n
