About

Hi, I’m Kim, a Paris-trained fashion designer specialized in denim, leather and casualwear for men’s and women’s ready-to-wear. I spent over three years at AMI Paris, working on 7 seasonal collections.

My work covers iconographic research, themes and moodboards, technical drawings in Illustrator, and complete tech packs (around 100 per season), written in English for suppliers in Portugal, Tunisia and Italy. I sourced and developed denim and leather materials, prints, embroideries and trims, and I handle photo retouching and design development in Photoshop.

Trained in pattern making and draping at ESMOD (Bachelor’s, with honors), I know how a garment is built, so my designs are realistic to produce.

Working remotely from Asia, flexible hours, fluent in English.
