DIGITAL PORTFOLIO
Fashion Designer • Product Developer • Technical Designer
A collection of fashion design projects showcasing creativity, technical precision, and product development expertise. From concept creation and trend research to technical packs and production coordination, each project reflects a passion for innovation, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
Inspired by Spring/Summer 2026 trend forecasts, these collections explore two distinct interpretations of nature-inspired luxury and sun-drenched escapism. Matcha Garden draws from botanical landscapes, organic textures, and mindful living, featuring soft greens, earthy neutrals, and fluid silhouettes that embody calm sophistication and sustainable elegance. In contrast, Sunset Sorbet captures the warmth of Mediterranean sunsets through vibrant apricot, coral, peach, and blush tones, expressing resort glamour, effortless femininity, and vacation-inspired luxury. Together, these collections celebrate the harmony between natural serenity and vibrant optimism, translating future color trends, lifestyle influences, and contemporary consumer aspirations into fresh and commercially relevant fashion concepts for the Spring/Summer 2026 season.
Inspired by Spring/Summer 2026 trend forecasts, these collections explore two contrasting yet complementary expressions of contemporary luxury. Butter Bloom embraces soft femininity through delicate pastel tones, fluid silhouettes, romantic details, and refined elegance inspired by blooming gardens and effortless sophistication. In contrast, Mocha Cashmere reflects the evolution of quiet luxury, combining rich neutral tones, timeless tailoring, elevated essentials, and understated refinement. Together, these collections celebrate the balance between romantic softness and modern minimalism, translating future color trends, lifestyle influences, and consumer desires into sophisticated and commercially relevant fashion concepts for the Spring/Summer 2026 season.
These technical drawings demonstrate my ability to translate creative concepts into clear, production-ready specifications. Developed using industry-standard technical illustration methods, each flat sketch accurately communicates garment construction, proportions, design details, trims, and silhouette development. The drawings serve as a critical link between design and manufacturing, ensuring consistency throughout the sampling and production process. This work reflects my understanding of technical design, product development, and the practical requirements needed to transform fashion concepts into commercially viable products.

In contrast, Blue Horizon captures the dreamlike beauty of coastal landscapes through airy blues, powder tones, and fluid silhouettes, reflecting a sense of serenity, femininity, and modern sophistication. Together, these collections showcase a balance between nature-inspired freshness and timeless coastal elegance, translating future color trends, lifestyle influences, and consumer aspirations into commercially relevant fashion concepts for Spring/Summer 2026.
