About

Ho un particolare interesse per il settore moda all'interno del quale ho maturato tredici anni di esperienza professionale avendo avuto l'opportunità di interagire con la progettazione e le linee prodotto di diversi brands, tra i quali Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Les Copains e Giambattista Valli. L'esperienza nel mondo del ricamo ê stata fondamentale per aprire le mie vedute in termini di cura dettaglio e della realizzazione del progetto in tutte le sue fasi, oltre che ad avermi concesso la possibilità di lavorare sugli input e occuparmi delle creazioni di clienti diversissimi tra loro, dal lusso al prêt-à-porter, a realtà minori. Cosi, dalla proposta nella sua fase embrionale, mi sono occupato di sviluppare idee, piazzamenti, definire minuterie ed elementi in correlazione tra la domanda (Italia - Usa - Francia - Svizzera - UK) e la catena produttiva (fornitori e laboratori); dall'Italia e dall'India, seguendo i progetti direttamente a telaio dai laboratori basati a New Delhi. Apprezzo seguire autonomamente il lavoro tanto quanto la cooperazione in team; per cui il mio è un approccio dinamico, energico e propositivo, che vede nella condivisione di idee e competenze il concreto valore aggiunto per la buona riuscita di un progetto. Ciò che mi propongo di fare è curare una linea in maniera singolare, innovativa e contemporanea in grado di raggiungere efficacemente gli obiettivi pianificati e offire punti di vista alternativi che rispecchino, al contempo, lo stile e il gusto affini al brand.

Consultant Fashion Designer and Product Manager for several clients. I follow projects from their implantation to the finished product, from inspiration and material research to the structure of the collection, bringing in the styles (and their balances) that work best to achieve the desired goals.
