Kab-Kum

Thai Style Studio 1984 Kab-Kum 1

“Kab-Kum’ is a ceremonial attire of the royalties of the Mandalay Dynasty (nowadays Myanmar). The attire was also being used as a contribution to the royal families of the colonies. The gifting of Kab-Kum is not merely the cultural distribution but the symbol of power and unity over the territories under the colonies.

Kab-Kum attire was influenced by another clothing in Myanmar royal house ‘Mahalada’ royal attire, which has embodied many elements from the Buddhist scriptures. The attire consists of golden and silver embroidery, jewels and the peacock Chada headwear.
