Croon Shoes first caught our attention on Instagram with their array of pastel colors and their dreamy, glitter-filled designs that would make any girl swoon. Based in Bangkok, Thailand, Croon is the label created by Bloom Tripwatana who was also the fashion designer for coveted Thai label, Kloset. With Thai fashion gaining attention on the world stage and becoming known for its quality rather than quantity, we wanted to talk to Bloom about her experiences creating a new label, and the inspiration behind her unique hand-made designs.

Please tell us a bit about yourself and your background?
I love all things colorful, animals and nature. I suppose that stems from where I grew up. I love to travel, and I believe good shoes and good clothes can make any cloudy day more light and beautiful. I graduated in art and graphic design in visual communication arts and started to work as a fashion designer at Kloset, which is a Thai women’s wear company.

Your designs are full of color and glitter, where does your inspiration come from?
My inspiration comes from all around me, from memories, to smells, to the atmosphere and the emotions of a single moment. I believe combining all these factors produces fresh feelings and ideas and this is where I get my inspiration! A corner of a cream colored wooden table in front of a setting sun, or my favorite toothpaste color can all be inspirations to me.
