Princess Sirivannavari is a fashion
designer and loves to play badminton.Princess Sirivannavari is the grandaughter of King Bhumibol. She is a 20-year-old fashion designer in Bangkok, and is interested in showcasing Thai silk to the fashion industry. Recently, she was given that chance by having her show sponsored by the couturier, House of Balmain, in Paris.
She is also an excellent badminton player, playing on the national badminton team and helping Thailand win a gold medal at the Southeast Asian Games in 2005. Little else is known about Princess Sirivannavari, because in Thailand it is highly improper (especially for people who work with the monarchy) to discuss the personal lives of royalty. However, everyone obviously hopes she succeeds in her professional goal of making Thai silk a more popular material among the great fashion houses of the world.
