Bangkok University

"Greetings, esteemed committee members. My name is Pongwarin poolkwan, and my nickname is Indy. When asked why I decided to apply, I hardly had to think twice; the opportunity presented here is truly immense. I have always loved and grown up surrounded by leathercraft. My parents own a clothing store, and my father has been passionate about leather goods for as long as I can remember. He has been collecting western wear since he was a teenager. Ever since I was a little boy, he would buy me leather jackets and leather pants. I naturally absorbed this passion, which eventually led me to pursue my studies in fashion. Because I have a deep, personal love for leather products, I decided to design this classic leather briefcase. This is the very first creation of my life that I have ever submitted to a competition."
