Founder & Creative director chez SAUVAGES PARIS Freelance designer (Ready-to-wear and accessories)
About

After gaining several experiences as a ready-to-wear designer in various luxury houses, I established in 2019 my own brand while simultaneously taking on freelance projects as a designer. Sauvages Paris is a hat brand. The collections include sailor caps - our iconic product - felt hats, and Panama hats. All our products are made in France in partnership with "EPV-labelled companies" (Living Heritage Companies). Today, the brand is carried by several retailers including Printemps Haussmann in Paris. We recently introduced a jewelry line to complement the collections. Simultaneously, I continue to develop my freelance stylist activity. For the past 4 years, I have been assisting brands throughout the entire collection development process; from mood boards research and sketches to Ai designs and tech-pack creation for sampling and production. I now live in Lisbon but I can travel to Paris whenever necessary. Living in Portugal, I can also contribute to the development of prototypes and oversee production, especially if your manufacturing is based in this country.
