À propos
Introduction
Senior Print & Textile Designer with over 18 years of experience across womenswear and accessories, working at the intersection of creative research, product design and production. I specialise in the development of production-ready prints, engineered placements, repeats, colorways and surface design, always with a strong focus on material integrity, scale, wearability and feasibility. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with design, product development and sourcing teams, preparing clear and reliable artwork files for suppliers and supporting collections from initial concept to sampling and production. I have contributed to collections at Balenciaga, Isabel Marant and & Other Stories, and now work as a freelance designer with brands and studios looking for thoughtful, precise and technically sound print and textile solutions. My approach is hands-on, considered and product-driven, with a strong sensitivity to materials, longevity and refined design.
