We broke the news back in April that Vogue was rumored to be adding a Thailand edition to its international arsenal, and now we can confirm that Vogue Thailand will in fact be launching both digitally and in print in 2013. Condé Nast International chairman and chief executive Jonathan Newhouse stated:
As previously rumored, former Elle Thailand editor-in-chief Kullawit Laosuksri has been appointed editor of the new publication; other editorial appointments have yet to be announced. Condé Nast Asia-Pacific president James Woolhouse said:
Following the announcement of Vogue Ukraine's planned launch, Vogue Thailand will be the 21st edition of Vogue worldwide. “Thailand has a rich culture and I'm excited to see how they'll deliver,” wrote MON.
As of yet we don't know exactly when in 2013 Vogue Thailand will launch, but you can be sure that when it does we'll have the cover and a full review for you.
