About

I’m Eugenie C Duhamel, a senior pattern cutter and garment technician with 15+ years of experience developing collections across menswear, womenswear, childrenswear, uniforms, swimwear, accessories, and costume work. I’m highly hands-on in manual pattern cutting, grading, draping, and fittings, and I enjoy turning design intent into production-ready patterns and garments.

I’ve worked closely with designers, clients, and both UK and overseas factories to manage approvals, quality control, and technical documentation. From luxury atelier work to operational production management and bespoke uniform or cosplay builds, I bring a strong production mindset—sealing samples, amending for fit, and delivering consistent results through clear technical packs and collaborative teamwork.
