[size=16][red]3rd EYE SHOWROOM[/red][/size]

Founded in 2016 by the veteran fashion entrepreneurs Jacopo Gianninoto and Jirawat Sriluansoi, starting from their collaboration with the two internationally-renowned fashion lines Drycleanonly and Nasha, 3RdEye Showroom is a concept showroom focusing on creative emerging designers with quality and innovation as core philosophy, operating worldwide, based between Europe and Asia.

3RdEye is designed more as creative collaboration than business exchange - with each and every designer represented by the showroom becoming a "partner" and openly sharing their creative and business ideas with the showroom, ranging from spatial design and art direction to recruitment of new talents into the showroom.

The 3RdEye team offers services such as Strategic Consulting, international sales management, creative and visual direction, production and merchandising, public relation and advising. They kicked off their successful season in Paris for the sS17 collection, featuring Nasha Accessories, Drycleanonly, Realistic Situation, Cure to Wear and Pittdar & Bhur.
