About
Hello, my name is Heydar Babayev. I am a Milan-based fashion designer with experience in womenswear design, collection development, product development, and size and fit.
I studied Fashion Design at Istituto Marangoni in Milan, and I am currently the founder and creative director of HYDE Studio, where I develop womenswear collections from concept to final product. My work includes research, moodboards, silhouette development, sketches, fabric direction, fittings, supplier communication, and production follow-up.
I also worked as a freelance Size and Fit Specialist at YOOX NET-A-PORTER, where I developed a stronger understanding of fit, garment construction, proportions, product quality, and how luxury products are evaluated across different categories.
At the moment, I am looking for an opportunity to grow inside an international fashion company and contribute to a professional design team. I am especially interested in concept development, womenswear, research, inspiration boards, technical sketches, fittings, and the process of building a collection from the first idea to the final product.
