About me
Hi, I am Cindy. Virgo, Brazilian and currently living in The Netherlands. I am passionate about female clothes as well as female empowerment and that is why I have chosen to work as a women's fashion designer. I am really thankful to have built my career creating products that help women show their personalities. I have a bachelor's degree in Fashion Design and I have over 12 years of experience designing female clothing and coolhunting for different brands. I have been on field trips to both the USA and China to look for trends, research fabrics, develop new products and meet new suppliers. I have been responsible for researching trends, defining collection themes and mood boards, as well as choosing fabrics and materials. In my day to day I was in charge of designing products, specifications and pattern/surfacing by hand drawing, Photoshop and Illustrator. I am also confortable with reviewing prototypes and fitting evaluation until perfection. I have a vast experience in contacting suppliers, balance product assortments, cost analysis, receiving samples and checking quality. I am building my career focusing on projects and companies which motivate my passion for innovative and sustainable fashion.
