With 10 years of experience in premium outerwear and sportswear design, I’ve developed a passion for combining technical function without compromising aesthetics. Working extensively with technologies such as, fully seam-sealed waterproofing, various bonding techniques, laser cutting, down, poly fill, rubber rain/welding. Additionally, specializing in sustainable practices via materials, material processes, garment factory practices and end-use garment quality.
Experienced in whole line design and development; from sketching, colouring line to sourcing materials/garment vendors, creating detailed technicals, prototyping, fittings, to final bulk production.
I help bring brands to market and work with overseas and local factories. I create their sustainable supply chain for overseas development by sourcing materials and guiding brands to use correct factories suitable to their needs. I set up brands workflow and apparel technical systems for manufacturing. I focus on implementing sustainable practices into supply chains and designs.
I focus on outerwear and sportswear design + full line development/production; fabric and colour direction, brand consulting, sketching to detailed technicals, sourcing materials/vendors, prototyping, fitting and manufacturing lines.
