Paolina Russo and Lucile Guilmard are two forces that are experts in folklore themes and the new collection designed for the Spring 2024 season channels Russo's heritage in Canada and her ability to reference sporty themes as well. This is blended together with Guilmard's traditional French heritage.
Presented during Copenhagen Fashion Week, the capsule is led by comfortable and feminine shapes, detailed with bold patterns. The seasonal collection is joined by collaborations alongside PUMA styles that embody the folklore theme. It is joined by knitwear that is detailed with a sporty visual undertone. This can be seen in the form of neoprene graphic tops, cycling-influenced jerseys, and tights. NOtably, there are tribal tattoo graphics that detail mesh sarongs and dresses.
