"Manny Is In the House": Bringing vibrant layers of colours and sportswear graphics to a shoot @toniandguylondonacademy last Friday for the British Hairdressing Awards final. A big congratulations to the artistic director Charlie Cullen and his team for this achievement. I cannot wait to see the final results. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashionstylist #art #design #style #styling #fashionstyle #mensfashion #menshair #menswear #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #hair #beauty #britishhairdressingawards #toniandguy #toniandguyacademy (at TONI&GUY Academy London)

It has been fantastic 6 weeks teaching my Summer School (Introduction to Fashion & Textile) here in Oxford @oxfordroyale. Life is much slower but it is equally rich, full of intellectual insights, and I am honoured to be working with such a lovely team. I was also moved by the final project my students designed and made in their final term. I took them to see Fashioned From Nature exhibition @vamuseum and ask: 1) How can we design a more sustainable fashion industry? and 2) How do we learn from the past? All given materials came from our local @oxfamgb. This is part of my upcycling project and it feels good to give back to our community. Oxford, I will miss you and I cannot wait to come back next year. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #fashion #art #design #summerschool #oxfordroyaleacademy #womenswear #womensfashion #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #oxford #oxfam (at Oxford University Museum of Natural History)

My final term teaching Introduction to Fashion & Textile Design to 13-15 y/o international students @oxfordroyale This is the group project where my students design an outfit from the given theme "Nation X Diversity". Then 2 more days for the final major project to be completed. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashionstylist #fashion #womensfashion #womenswear #londonstyle #londonfashion #london#oxford #oxfordroyaleacademy #teaching #fashiondesign #nation #diversity #colour (at Oxford University Museum of Natural History)

"FreeRange": Invited to the photographic exhibition, FreeRange, at Truman Brewery supporting the work of many young talents. It's great to see a lot of exciting work and connect with many lovely team and creative individuals at the event. Thank you Bojidar for grabbing me for this spontaneous shot 😊🙏 #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashionstylist #fashion #dance #art #style #styling #stylist #personalstyle #mensstyle #menswear #mensfashion #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #freerange #photography #exhibition (at The Old Truman Brewery)

"Pride! A deeper love, Pride!": Surrounded by love, light, and rainbow superpower last Saturday celebrating diversity, equality and love that had no labels. For the first time, I kind of blended into the background.

It's a silhouette design day today and my class are making a headpiece to celebrate being a woman. I also made mine to inject some vibrancy and gender fluidity to the theme. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #art #design #fashiondesigner #memswear #mensfashion #womensfashion #womenswear #genderfluid #headpiece #colour #vibrancy #london #londonfashion #londonstyle #oxford #oxfordroyaleacademy (at Oxford University Museum of Natural History)

Inspired by ethnographic and anthropological research and objects @pittriversmuseum as part of the academic excursion, I set up a T-shirt project for my students that brings together patterns and texts in response to the chosen objects from the museum under the theme of Nation X Diversity. The work is yet completed but I am very happy with the direction they are gearing towards. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #art #style #womenswear #womensfashion #genderfluid #menswear #mensfashion #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #pittriversmuseum #oxfordroyaleacademy (at Oxford University Museum of Natural History)

A great joy to be returning to Oxford this Summer to teach Introduction to Fashion & Textile Design to 13-15 y/o international students @oxfordroyale This was the job that has reignited my passion for teaching bringing various aspects of personal development to fashion pedagogy. Can't wait to share photos of students' creation as the weeks progress. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashionstylist #fashion #art #style #styling #stylist #personalstyle #mensstyle #menswear #womenswear #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #oxford #oxfordroyaleacademy #miramikati (at Jowett Walk)

"Colour Pathway": Recently I experienced many random but joyful encounters wherever I go. By being myself I have met and spoken to like-minded individuals who see and share the same values. This photo was captured by @gabrielmazza_ during our walk home after being introduced by his boss who I regular met at the Stamford Hill overground station. We can't force a connection, but when we stop looking we will see it right before us. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #art #style #styling #fashionstylist #personalstyle #menswear #mensfashion #mensstyle #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #connection #colour #print #photography #random (at Shoreditch)

Behind the scene @ganordominic shoes campaign shoot last month. A battle between monochromes and colours. Can't decide? Let's do both. 😊✌️🌈 #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashionstylist #fashion #dance #art #style #styling #womenswear #shoes #acessories #photoshoot #campaign #monochrome #colour #ganordominic #london #londonstyle #londonfashion (at seventy7 London)

Last Wednesday I helped @dianegoldie putting together a fashion parade as part of the Summer Festival at the old Spitalfield Market. The event hoped to celebrate colours and life of independent artists who live/work in East London. As a colourful person, it doesn't mean that life would always give me rainbows, unicorns and eternal happiness. I, too, experience unwanted thoughts and feeling. And there's a pressure to keep being colourful. This also applies to Diane who lost one of her daughters last year. To embrace this truth, all aspects of colour and complexity of life itself, we subverted the colour parade known as The Colour Walk to a monochromatic march. We celebrated diversity, joy, sadness, sorrow, grief, legacy, memories, all that life can offer. The artwork and texts were developed from Diane's late daughter found in her sketchbook. They are powerful, meaningful and honest. I am proud to have met these people and be part of this celebratory march. 😊🙏 #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #art #style #styling #stylist #fashionstylist #menswear #womenswear #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #diversity #dianegoldie #monochrome #parade #spitalfields (at Old Spitalfields Market)

Reconnecting with the one and only Michiko Koshino and her wonderful team @michikokoshino during her LFWM's presentation @istitutomarangoni last night.

"GFW": Reconnecting with my ex-students and the team at Plymouth College of Art @pca_fmm @pca_bafashion during the Graduate Fashion Week today. How exciting to see them grow on their creative journey and to be surrounded in the environment that nurture this growth. Well done. 😊👍 #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #art #style #styling #stylist #personalstyle #fashiondesign #graduatefashionweek #london #trumanbrewery #creative #plymouthcollegeofart (at Brick Lane)

Ruffled some feathers last night at Fox & Badge's masquerade ball. As predicted, everyone came in their 50 Shades inspired attire. So I challenged these stereotypical norms with my 50 Shades of Rainbow styling and concept. It went down well like a red balloon 🎈 Thank you Miranda Keeling from Inflate-a-belles for your balloon art. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #creativedirector #fashion #dance #art #style #styling #stylist #fashionstyling #personalstyle #menswear #mensfashion #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #agnesb #inflate #balloons #masquerade

"Art Attack": Back at the Toni & Guy Academy today assisting the in-house stylist for their Art Team's editorial shoot. Everybody was working so hard in this hot and humid weather. Amazing crafts and complex work were produced. And it's beautiful to be part of this process. Whilst all the art team making their selection, I cannot help but capturing this moment. #manruttwongkaew #manrutt #fashiondoctor #fashion #art #style #styling #stylist #fashionstyling #photoshoot #editorial #toniandguy #womenswear #womensstyle #womensfashion #beauty #london #londonstyle #londonfashion #hair (at TONI&GUY Academy London)
