A Russells nasce para redefinir fronteiras, trazendo a sofisticação e a audácia do universo fashion para o mundo pet. A marca parte de uma premissa clara: usar um acessório no seu cão não precisa quebrar o seu visual; ele pode e deve se integrar ao seu estilo, tornando-se uma peça essencial do seu look.

Através da escolha de materiais elegantes, de uma estética cheia de personalidade e de um uso corajoso e vibrante das cores, o projeto se distancia do clichê do mercado pet tradicional.  Para dar vida a um tom de voz que é ao mesmo tempo autêntico e expressivo, o universo visual conta com uma tipografia personalizada e uma direção de fotografia com referências na alta costura.

The world of wellness is constantly expanding.
