BLINKS continues to be looking forward to Lisa’s BLACKPINK solo debut for a long time. Lisa debuted her first music video, ‘LALISA,’ recently and it has got everyone screaming and dancing for joy.
In the music video, Lisa was seen wearing a contemporary interpretation of the traditional Thai outfit like a tribute to her hometown designed by ASAVA.
ASAVA has uploaded an earlier sketch of the outfit and it featured a shiny long train, crop top and wrapped mini skirt.
Popat “Moo” Asavaprapha, ASAVA’s designer and creative director, asserted the outfit was custom-made for “LALISA” out of traditional Thai brocade gold silk.
“Lisa has a lot of respect for her origins. Not just using the rap in 'LALISA' but this traditional outfit is meant to be known through the public. “
The gold, Swarovski-laced outfit, which comprises a sabai or breast shawl and a zin or sarong wrap, is really a bespoke, hand-embroidered piece by Thai designer Asava. A gold mongkut headpiece completes the royal ensemble.
It’s beautifully woven with antique Lamphun designs from northern Thailand’s Lamphun province.
Lisa says she would like her fans to feel the vibe of her home country, Thailand. Thai music influences, not just the garments and accessories, but also the instrumentals.
She said she asked Teddy, one of the head producers for YG, that they added some Thailand-style beats which fans should be excited about her music video.
With 73.Six million views within the first 24 hours, the accompanying music video for the title tabs on exactly the same name happens to be the most viewed reel online with a solo artist-and for a good reason. Currently, the video has garnered over 161 million views.
