A royal court gown, ever since the Ayutthaya dynasty until Rathanakhosin, has been considered as the exclusive item of clothings. It was either worn on the occasion of royal Investiture or granted by the monarch to the royalties, aristocrats, or high-ranking officials. Hence the gown is representing the status and the prestige of those who wear them. Gown wearing has become a royal practice in various states both in Asia and Europe. In the case of Thailand, the historical evidence has suggested that the monarch has gifted the royals and officials with a gown, as a medal of their great contribution since the Ayutthaya era and the tradition continues up until today.
