A star-studded show launched a major cross-industry collaboration between two iconic brands: FitFlop x Jim Thompson. Celebrating a summer of color and style, Jim Thompson, the iconic global lifestyle brand from Thailand, has teamed up with FitFlop, the UK-based smart engineering footwear company, to unveil their exciting FitFlop x Jim Thompson collection, titled ‘House on the Klong’.
To celebrate the relocation and opening of the new CentralWorld store, a dazzling fashion show was held, drawing fashionistas and famous celebrities to witness the collaboration as two iconic lifestyle brands join forces. The event buzzed with excitement as attendees got a first look at the stunning, contemporary collection.
Renowned actresses and fashion icons, including Diana Flipo, Sirin “Chippy” Preediyanon and Phulita “Whan” Supinchompoo were in attendance at the exclusive fashion show unveiling the collection, bringing further glamor and sparking trendsetter attention to this spectacular event and collaboration.
Nunnapat Verojanavat, Marketing Director of Jim Thompson, stated, “Last year, we collaborated with three amazing Thai artists and brands through our artists-in-residence project, including Panpuri and Revested Miliano. One collaboration we had never explored before was footwear. This latest partnership perfectly embodies the strengths of both brands. FitFlop’s technology and comfortable design combined with Jim Thompson’s celebrated iconic prints. Together, it’s the perfect match.”
