               Impeccable tailoring and feminine
               silhouettes are at the core of Vatanika’s
               eponymous womenswear and
               accessories brand, of which she is
               creative director. Her designs have won
               her many celebrity admirers, including
               Miranda Kerr, Jennifer Lopez, and
               Cara Delevingne. Vatanika, however,
               has become a celebrity in her own
               right after starring in the reality show
               This is Me Vatanika, which has been
               called the Thai version of Keeping Up
               With The Kardashians. Constantly
               surrounded by a coterie of hipsters and
               high-profi le friends, Vatanika shares the
               ins and outs of her jet-setting lifestyle
               with over 770,000 Instagram followers.
               A collaboration with Franck Muller is
               apparently in the pipeline.
