Meo

"My name is Meo. I was born in Lampun, a village in the north of Thailand. I was very young when I fell in love with silk, this great textile that originates in Asia, because my family produced and sold silk. So I grew up in this atmosphere. When I was going to school, in my free time, I went to help my uncle who had a big shop. I helped him with everything and I earned money for myself. I liked working in that place, first because my uncle is like a father for me and he taught me a lot. And second because I could learn more about the silk from all over Asia.

"As I grew older, I decided to create my own designs and I really love what I am doing. Usually I get my inspiration from everything that surrounds me. I like to buy magazines and see the latest trends. But in all my creations, I want to include a sense of my beloved country. Thailand is such a beautiful place, rich in history and traditions.

"Some years ago, I married a man from Laos, and now we have a daughter who is my daily inspiration and source of energy. I love to make clothes for her, and I am very proud when she wears my clothes. When people ask me about her clothes, this makes me very happy.

"I really want to thank Novica for giving me this opportunity to display my designs and my culture all over the world."
