Expert Fashion design | Tech packs & 3D apparel | Product development

Hello, my name is Elena it's great to see you here! I’m a fashion product development lead and technical designer based in Italy, with 10+ years of experience helping brands turn ideas into real, well-made and high-end quality request, products. I work across womenswear and menswear, and I support clients from the first concept to production. That can mean shaping the collection direction, building clear tech packs, improving fit, choosing the right fabrics and trims, and coordinating sampling and manufacturing with reliable suppliers. What I can help you with: * Brand & product consulting - clear direction on what to develop, how to position it, and how to build a strong product line * Collection design - research, concepts, mood boards, design development, fabrics and trims * Technical design - tech packs, flats, measurements, construction notes, fit improvements * Patterns - pattern support to get you ready for sampling and production * Photoreal 3D garments - for presentations, marketing, pre-sales, and faster approvals * Materials & sourcing support - choosing the right fabrics/trims and helping you source what matches the vision * Project leadership + quality control - managing sampling and production steps so your product meets your brand standards Since I’m based in Italy, I can communicate quickly with European partners and keep a close eye on quality which helps to avoid expensive mistakes and get a smoother production process. Over the last 6 years, I’ve completed 100+ projects on Upwork, helping new brands launch and established ones upgrade their product and production standards. If you’re looking for a senior partner who is both creative and highly organized and who can lead the process from idea to production - I’d love to support your next launch. Elena
