'Rule breaker' school uniforms challenge tradition | Bangkok Post: learning


Models pose wearing Thai designer Tin Tunsopon's creations aiming to be an alternative to the school uniforms that are mandatory in the country, on April 19, 2020. School uniform rules are strict, down to how pupils' hair should be cut and the type of socks and shoes they are allowed to wear. Tin Tunsopon has taken the typical uniforms and blown them up into exaggerated versions with huge collars and baggy sleeves. "By re-creating these uniforms and giving them various designs...people can see that we should no longer be attached to the (traditional) uniforms anymore," 23-year-old Tin told Reuters. The rebellious movement sweeping through Thai high schools, dubbed "Bad Student" by its leaders, has also found more affordable ways to express itself.
