If you’re heading to Bangkok anytime soon, here’s something fun to add to your itinerary—especially if you’re after a cute, Instagram-worthy moment.


Clothing rentals have become a go-to activity for tourists in Thailand, offering a playful break from the usual sightseeing spots. While many still gravitate toward traditional outfits, more Gen Z travelers are switching things up by dressing like Thai students.


Just look at Mika Salamanca and Will Ashley during their recent Bangkok trip. The PBB alums shared snaps of themselves exploring the city in school uniforms, blending right in with the locals.
