PIPATCHARA embodies sustainable lifestyle with its Infinitude items which transform upcycled materials into accessories, coveted wearable haute couture and luxe interior décor. The Infinitude Christmas Tree is made with PIPATCHARA’S signature design component – glittering, snowflake-like paillettes from recycled plastic – but this time the newly invented oversized, sheer white pieces made from plastic fruit crates sourced from local Thai stores. The unique installation is further enhanced by illumination from new edition Infinitude lamps. Combined they create a soaring, stunning art piece, communicating a compelling vision not just of celebration, but high-end lifestyle that is both beautiful and socially responsible.
PIPATCHARA was founded in 2018 by sisters Thapthim-Jitrinee and Petch-Pipatchara Kaeojiinda, whose passion for stylishly sustainable fashion has gained global recognition. They started their creation journey with hand-crafted macramé pieces, before evolving into the instantly recognizable Infinitude fashion and accessories line created from upcycled plastic bottle caps, plastic cups and other plastic products. Infinitude items have been proudly worn by many A-list celebrities including Lisa-Lalisa Monoban, the Thai K-pop, vocal soloist powerhouse and a member of the globally acclaimed girl group Blackpink.
“Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok and PIPATCHARA both share a vision for conscious sustainability and commitment to community, along with a desire to deliver innovation and artistry in everything we do,” says Patrick Both, Regional General Manager, Luxury & Lifestyle, Thailand IHG Hotels and Resorts. “Every year it’s exciting to work with talented local artists to see these concepts brought to life in a magnificent, new edition Christmas tree and share environmentally friendly, festive art during everyone’s favourite time of year.”
“I’ve always had a dream to expand PIPATCHARA into interior design and working with Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok has been a great opportunity for our brand to spread our wings beyond the fashion sphere,” says Petch-Pipatchara Kaewchinda, PIPATCHARA co-founder and designer. “The Infinitude Christmas Tree is a great start for even bigger and more beautiful things to come!”
