Besides a slew of happening bars, hip coffee shops and restaurants, Ari is also fast becoming one of Bangkok’s coolest shopping destinations thanks to a growing number of trendy multi-label shops and even concept stores located inside its BTS station. For example, GQ Apparel, a Thai menswear label that specializes in stain-resistant and wrinkle-free button down shirts. 

Designed to bring convenience to daily commuters, the concept store is located on the BTS Ari platform and focuses on the label’s best-selling GQWhite button down shirts (B1,990). These feature collars with specialized coating that prevents yellow stains, plus “Buffet Buttons” that provide a 3mm horizontal stretch to prevent gapping after your big meal. Even better: the brand claims the fabric is both spill- and stain-resistant on top of being wrinkle-free.

Head to the store to find your size and get a hands-on primer on how the shirts are made.
