Growing up in Markham, Ontario,
Paolina Russo was influenced by the town’s rich crafting and sporting communities from a young age, so when it came to founding her own label, both would feature heavily. Take this Exclusive-to-Selfridges top as proof. It’s patchworked together from upcycled trainers – yes, really – to a sculptural bra-like silhouette which is finished with vibrant embroidery to highlight its structure. Pair yours with your best kicks, of course.
