Jim Thompson

Thai Silk has this dream-like quality to it and purchasing some is imperative for every person who takes a trip to Siam. Jim Thompson is one of the most popular brands in the Thai textile industry and its high-end stores were established by an American businessman of the same name. Apart from fine silk products, you can also find superlative cotton, linens and leather. Expect to splurge on silk scarves, handkerchiefs, shirts, trousers and duvet covers. The bags, wallets and furniture are equally worth the money that you will be spending. This place is clearly for the affluent given how a single scarf can cost you anything around 3000 Baht while a bedcover can set you back by 10,000 Baht if not more. The colours and prints are downright spellbinding.
Jim Thompson has shops all over the country with five spacious ones in Phuket apart from a factory outlet. You can find a store in the Le Meridien Hotel, the Turtle Village, Central Festival Phuket, the Kata Thani Beach Resort And Spa and the Canal Village Laguna.
