About
I’m Elisa Paderno, a Fashion Designer and Sourcing Specialist based in Italy with 7+ years of experience across fast fashion and import production. I focus on trend research, collection development, and end-to-end product development—from scouting yarns, fabrics, and accessories to working closely with suppliers and printers.
I’ve also built strong international experience through business trips to China, where I research and select finished products, develop collections, and evaluate materials according to market needs. I enjoy translating creative ideas into practical technical specifications, overseeing prototyping and industrialization, and proposing assortments that are commercially relevant.
