Associate technical designer
Magaschoni
New York, NY
Feb 2008 - May 2010 (2 years 3 months)
Magaschoni had exciting products to work with: exquisite woven and knitwear collections using refined fabrics or yarns made from cashmere, angora wool, silk, pima cotton, etc. I worked alongside a very talented technical designer on perfecting the fit of every single style from the collection encompassing woven and knitted jacket, coat, top, blouse, skirt, pants, accessories. Had the pleasure to gain some of my hands-on skills working with luxurious fabrics and learning how to fit high-end ready-to-wear garments.
