ABOUT PAOPAO
A Singaporean label founded by the visionary Run Run, who made the leap from advertising to fashion in 2020. Each design showcases her creative interpretation of personal evolution and cultural exploration in an era of rapid change.
Speaking to the contemporary women who confidently embrace their ethnic roots amidst a dynamic interplay of tradition and innovation. PaoPao embodies a space where style defies limitations and empowers individual expression.
FUN FACT
“Pao” (袍) on its own means ‘robe’. Coincidentally, Pao shares the same pronunciation as Run in chinese, which is why some people call Run Run, Pao Pao (跑跑）.
