» A decade ago, any Thais looking for internationally branded goods such as clothes, handbags, watches or perfumes would have to fly to more established shopping destinations such as Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo. Today Thailand’s capital city has almost every global brand on offer, from well-known luxury names such as Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, Valentino and Giorgio Armani, to other up-market brands such as Miu Miu, Sephora, Victoria’s Secret, H&M, Zara Home, Pull&Bear and Harrods Tea Room.
