Yuwa Fern, 5th Runner Up Miss Grand Thailand 2024, in the Ayutthaya-Style Thai Traditional Dress . Sabai (สไบ) is a shawl-like breast cloth in Thailand. The word sabai originates from the Austronesian term *cahebay, meaning “to hang,” with roots in south China around 5,000-4,500 BCE. In Thailand, evidence of the sabai appears in Dvaravati stucco reliefs showing five women musicians wearing sabai while playing instruments, demonstrating its long history since the 6th century. .
