Emerging men’s fashion house, Pila Studio isn't your typical tailor. Nipon Pila founded his namesake brand three years ago when he was a publicist (for a financial bank, can you believe it?) and studying fashion design part-time. “Growing up, I was exposed to the work of tailors and, before I knew it, I became passionate about it. Tailoring has been around for centuries and, I believe, will still be around in the next hundred years. Suits are classic. It’s a power piece that transforms a man into a gentleman.”
Pila pieces are reminiscent of vintage styles and look to history for inspiration. “I borrow elements and silhouettes from the past, and reappropriate them into the styles of today.” Hence, his designs feature loose silhouettes, bold colors, interesting fabrics and small, edgy details. His pieces have caught the eye of many local musicians and entertainment personalities, including the guys from pop bands Jetset’er and Season Five.
