Creative Technical Design

To create a garment, I use a combination of draping, patternmaking, and mocking to achieve the fit and aesthetic intended. I am proficient at pattenmaking software Optitex and more recently, CLO. I typically start by draping the basic shape, then I digitally pattern the rest of my garment and add details. Next, I will make a first mock to check the garment, and make changes from there. Finally, I create the final sample, finishes and all.

​

My specialties include skirts & trend knit tops.
