Available to hire
Hi, I’m Vicky Diafa, a fashion and textile designer with hands-on experience in women’s wear collections, textile print design, and production coordination. I enjoy turning concepts into market-ready products, managing fabrics, patterns and fittings, while using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to craft compelling visuals and presentations. I thrive in collaborative settings and love crafting creative solutions that are both beautiful and practical.
I’ve built my career through vocational and graphic design training in Greece, continuously expanding my skillset with courses in branding, InDesign, and export marketing. I’m collaborative, creative, and organized, and I’m passionate about helping teams bring ideas to life with clarity, quality, and efficiency.
