Available to hire
I am a qualified and professional fashion and textile designer with eight years of experience in fashion and merchandise design. I have strong creative skills as well as technical ones, and I am a team player with a keen eye for detail.
From concept development to final production, I lead the design process, create couture-inspired capsule collections, and stay on top of fashion trends. I understand customer needs and tailor original designs to those needs, manage the stages of collection development, plan project timelines, and collaborate with suppliers and manufacturers to ensure quality and brand consistency across campaigns and stores.
