Король открывает секрет ярких пиджаков HM reveals the secret of his colourful attire His Majesty yesterday revealed the secret behind his recent appearances in coats of many colours. The King was wearing pink when he left Siriraj Hospital on Nov 7 after treatment, and later emerged in green after visiting his ailing elder sister Princess Galyani Vadhana at the hospital. And on Monday he left wearing red. ''If every time I go in and out [of the hospital] in the same uniform, it's a bore,'' he said. ''I'm already old. So I don't want to be boring in the way I dress,'' he added. When His Majesty wore a pink blazer on leaving Siriraj on Nov 7 after treatment, his attire sent a fashion statement to all his well-wishers. The colour became an instant hit. People across the country began wearing pink, in addition to the King's yellow, the most popular colour in the Kingdom. Yellow represents Monday, the day he was born. But His Majesty did not stop at pink. Green, purple, brown, blue and red followed in other visits to the hospital. Hours after he went to Siriraj in green on Nov 14, polo shirts in the same colour were ready for customers at shops near the hospital. Every change was on the front page of newspapers. ''They did it as though they were blaming me, asking why he had to do that,'' the King said jokingly. The King said he did not mind wearing red, the colour it had been suggested he should avoid because it could bring him bad luck. ''My mother was born on Sunday. That's red. My sister was also born on Sunday. My brother too,'' he said, referring to the late Princess Mother, Princess Galyani and King Ananda Mahidol. ''But [Khun] Thong Daeng was not born on Sunday. She was born on Saturday. It's violet,'' the King said of his favourite pet dog. His Majesty also recommended that Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont wear other colours, rather than sticking to his white uniform. But His Majesty insisted that he was not bored with seeing the prime minister in the same colour. ''Who says the prime minister is boring?'' the King said. ''He looks great in white. And he has done a good job,'' added His Majesty, who was in a grey suit and yellow tie yesterday. Комментарии (0)
