Pattern Cutter and Bespoke Tailor
About

Hello all, I've been working and studying within the fashion industry, for over five years now - focusing on around fast fashion, design, development and the manufacturing of garments. I've worked within the retail sector alongside my studies for over four of these years, where I've also developed my experience as a leader, as well as a visual merchandiser. I'm a graduate of UAL's Bespoke Tailoring course, and have used my educational experience to work as a pattern cutter and tailor for multiple ready to wear brands as well as assisting with more junior team members to achieve a better outcome whilst also mentoring them. I'm now looking for more work within this sector, particularly within the field of pattern cutting and design.
