Paul Aaron is building sparkly stage wardrobes the slow way: knitting them, by hand, one piece at a time. His work has already found its way onto two very different pop stages, worn by both Zara Larsson and Hilary Duff. It is the kind of craft that takes real hours to produce, and by his own account, the bills haven't quite caught up to the artistry yet. Call it a designer still in the emerging column, doing couture-level work at knitwear's pace.
