CELEBRATING 75 YEARS OF JIM THOMPSON

JIM AND I: THE WEAVER'S STORIES

As part of Jim Thompson’s 75th Anniversary, Jim and I: The Weaver’s Stories is a narrative-driven storytelling campaign that brings together 12 carefully selected voices, each sharing a meaningful connection to the brand. Through a series of short interview films, the project explores one central question: “What is the thread that connects you to Jim Thompson?” By weaving together personal stories from artisans, designers, cultural custodians, global partners, patrons, and leaders, the campaign celebrates the brand’s legacy of craftsmanship while reflecting how Jim Thompson continues to evolve through creativity, innovation, and human connection across generations.

A Story Woven Through Time

To mark its 75th anniversary, Jim Thompson presents “Jim Thompson: Beyond Silk, Beyond Thailand”, the brand’s first coffee table book celebrating a legacy of craftsmanship, design, and cultural influence.
