Gucci announces Gulf Kanawut Traipipattanapong as its latest house ambassador. A prominent figure in the Thai entertainment industry, the You are my Markup Artist actor proves that his multi-hyphenate status is only becoming more indelible. Initially kickstarting his career as an actor and singer, Gulf has since gone on to expand his creative horizons, exploring the sartorial realm of fashion.
Known for his distinctive style and fashion week appearances, it's not surprising that the maison has tapped Gulf as a house ambassador. As the second Thai ambassador for the Italian luxury label, Gulf joins distinguished actress and model Davika Hoorne, who was also recently appointed to represent both Gucci & its beauty line.

From making frequent appearances at the Italian label's events and fashion shows to being appointed as a friend of the house since 2020, the Thai actor aptly reflects the maison's values of contemporary luxury and a radical, fashion-forward vision.

For his solo campaign with the maison, the Thai actor was dressed in a relaxed denim co-ord, effortlessly showcasing various statement pieces—notably, the classic monogram luggage bag and the iconic Jackie shoulder bag in red.
