Thai King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Queen Suthida are undertaking a State Visit to China to mark the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. On November 14, 2025, King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Queen Suthida were received by President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
For the occasion, Queen Suthida wore a Thai Amarin dress—one of the eight traditional Thai royal dresses of the Chakri Dynasty designed by Queen Sirikit, The Queen Mother. She complemented her attire with a brooch featuring a royal portrait of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) encircled by diamonds.
On the evening of November 14, 2025, King Vajiralongkorn and Queen Suthida attended a State Banquet hosted by President Xi Jinping and Peng Liyuan at the Great Hall of the People. Queen Suthida again wore a traditional Thai Amarin dress and carried a Yan Liphao bag, a distinctive example of Thai craftsmanship.
On November 15, 2025, King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Queen Suthida laid a wreath at the Monument to the People’s Heroes in Tiananmen Square. The act is regarded as an important diplomatic protocol in welcoming foreign leaders, symbolizing respect for the “heroes who sacrificed for the nation,” considered by China to be the foundation of its peace and progress.
Later that afternoon, the King and Queen visited the Humanoid Robotics Center in Beijing, established in 2023 as China’s first integrated technology company specializing in intelligent robotics innovation, focusing on the research and development of universal embodied artificial intelligence technologies and platforms.
Waouh ! Quelle élégance pour la reine Suthida.
ReplyDeleteÀ mon avis, un sans-faute pour la reine Suthida.
Les couleurs, la coupe de ses tenues sont magnifiques.
L’épouse du président chinois est fort élégante dans cette robe de couleur noire.
-Astrid.
Queen Suthida is a portrait in flawless elegance here — every outfit just superb. She wears clothes beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThe most well Groomed Queen ever!
DeleteEx air hostess; and currently married to the richest king.
DeleteI’m blown away by the beautiful fashion of Queen Suthida. Every outfit is gorgeous, with perfect fit and accessories. My favorite is the navy coat with the black trim, which is spectacular. Her posture is enviable!
ReplyDeleteSuperbes toutes les deux mais particulièrement la Reine qui a un look parfait jusque dans la délicatesse de ses bijoux !
ReplyDeleteLa reine de Thaïlande est d'une grande élégance, particulièrement la 2e jupe, noire avec la base en broderies dorées. (Elle conviendrait très bien à Mary de Danemark, pour une soirée, lors d'un voyage en Asie).
ReplyDeleteSon manteau bleu est vraiment superbe : la couleur, le tissu (soie ?) et la ligne magnifique ! Quelle classe ! Paloma.
Both ladies are dressed impecable.
ReplyDeleteI love that we are seeing queen suthida again here. The thai amarin cloth was one of the modern traditional outfits created by late Queen Sikirit in partnership with Balmain. There are 7 in total. Lovely!!! I follow a few accounts on instagram that talk about the symbolism of the fabrics that Suthida wears.
ReplyDeleteThank you for explaining the history!
DeleteThe Thai Queen might have had to avoid brighter colours for this tour as they still will be in mourning for the late Queen Sirikit. Explains her wearing very dark colours. She looks exquisite in every item, nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteYes The Royal Family of Thailand and the Thai people are in mourning period of 1 yeard for Her Late Majesty Queen Sirikit The Queen Mother
DeleteOh, I'm near speechless LOL! Queen Suthida, looks sensational. I love all her outfits. Beautiful, couture. Wonderful choices here with regards ensembles, she looks good in the fit and style of these outfits. Her accessory game is perfect. Love her small bag with the metal handle, this is gorgeous. Her Navy gown, is perfection, her navy gloves, stunning. Love her brooch's and earrings. Gorgeous diamond and sapphire and the pearl earrings. She has amazing taste, each piece splendid.
ReplyDeleteYes, the small bag with the metal handle looks more like a box with a handle, or a metal box covered with fabric or velvet perhaps, almost like a jewelry box. I've seen pictures of Queen Suthida before where she is wearing a similar box. It must be a traditional object to wear in Thailand.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised that the Chinese first lady is dressed more modern than the Japanese Empress. The neckline of her dresses is the only detail which reminds a bit the traditional clothing. Also her hairstyle is much more modern.
ReplyDelete22:23 you are comparing two completely different cultures and global interests. The Japanese hold to their customs and culture out of deep respect and value for tradition. This is not what the Chinese political elite do.
DeleteWhy do a king and queen bow so deeply to a president and first lady?
ReplyDeleteIt is the custom in some Asian countries to bow to the people you visit. The princesses of Japan also bow to students, artists, etc... when they visit schools, exhibitions, etc...
DeleteBoth ladies exude elegance and grace. However, the clothing worn by Queen Suthida looks to be of the very finest quality of silks. No doubt it is. The midnight navy coat fits her figure perfectly. Stunning in every way.
ReplyDeleteTHIS is haute couture. Queen Suthida's last two outfits are simply extraordinary in their execution. We rarely see this level of fit and tailoring excellence in royal dress. To select one aspect as an example -- just look at the construction of the shoulders of the final outfit (3 of the 5 pics). It's a privilege to see these wonderful designs; I only wish we knew the name of the designer. Apparently the queen uses both European and local Thai designers for her special occasion wear. Lyra
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with you!
DeleteQueen Suthida’s outfits are exceptionally beautiful and truly inspirational! It gives you new and refreshing ideas on fashion!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of Queen Suthida before and I must say she is very elegant and beautiful. All of the outfits shown here are magnificent. She has great taste and posture. I especially admire the skirt shown in the first outfit with the unusual border. Even her choice in jewellry and shoes is exquisite. I'm blown away.
ReplyDeleteYou may not have heard of her because she’s a relatively new wife to the king, of which he has had many and - simultaneously. She’s absolutely beautiful, around 30 years his junior, and a great asset for overseas photos. It is not a clear and easy history if you do a little reading about her.
DeleteShe is particularly beautiful and stylish. However I urge you all to read a little on the very mixed history of the Thai king and her parcour, and to also consider that he is a king rarely seen in Thailand (living in Bavaria, away from his people) and the weirdness of china’s timing in running these elegant Royal visits. The most beautiful fashion in the world makes very worrying events look stylish.
ReplyDeleteI also urge you to read and check a little deeper to on your raised matter. He rarely visit Bavaria nowadays after clearing all German matter on inheritance tax (too bad that the former king died when he had residence in Bavaria and caused the problem with German tax scheme). And the news of state visit to China and Bhutan has been circulated for government and diplomatic planing since Dec 2024 so your comment on weirdness of time is quite misleading.
Delete*This* is how you do it. All the other queens, and future queens, and "want-to-be" queens, in the world need to follow her lead. This woman's style is impectable! FOUR SNAPS UP!!! Crisp tailoring, not over accessorized, elegant hair, not too much makeup, dignified posture - just impectable!
ReplyDeleteI must say Queen Suthida always looks like she stepped out of a Magazine. Always classy, elegant and great fitting cloth. Each outfit she wore in Chaina looks stunning. I also like the black dress from the Chinese First lady, simple but elegant. I would call this PERFECTION.
