Paulo Leone, the co-founder of Wear Canada Proud, wants the experience to make shoppers take ownership over home-grown fashion and propel the industry forward. “Yes, it starts with giving them the opportunity to discover and purchase Canadians designers and brands, but it goes way deeper than that. It’s about the confidence that comes from knowing who designed the clothes or accessories you put on, and taking pride in the fact that they are fellow Canadians,” Leone said in a statement.
The Wear Canada Proud pop-up will run exclusively at CF Toronto Eaton Centre during regular shopping centre hours until July 12 in Albert's Way.
