About

Hi, I’m Illya Guzman (Illy), a fashion design professional based in Los Angeles. I blend creative design with technical craftsmanship—CADs, tech packs, garment construction, and illustration—to bring ideas from concept to sample.

I thrive in cross-functional teams, driving trend research, fit comments, sample management, and PLM/POS workflows. I’m hands-on, detail-oriented, and excited to build cohesive collections that perform on and off the rack.
