Freelance & Permanent Fashion Design service for Womenwear

Dear customer,

I am sensitive to trends in fashion and experienced in their design, production, and marketing. This knowledge is informed by 13 years in the fashion industry, along with diplomas and certifications in fashion, and my career as an artist and educator. I speak fluent English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.

I was a Fashion Designer and Product Developer for 8 years, handling global brands such as Schiesser, Fornari, and Marks & Spencer. I served as a Product Developer at Ecko and Marks & Spencer, and as a Fabric Merchandiser at Levi's and Tommy Hilfiger. I have specialized in knit, woven, sweaters, and denim. I have sourcing networks in Asia for fabric, garments, accessories, and trim.

I was also the Manager of a fashion boutique in Hong Kong for 3 years, gaining additional experience in procurement, administration, and PR.

I can provide the following services :


1) Fashion design, tech packs, production stretches, fittings, sourcing, simple t-shirt prints, and fabric prints, 
primarily for Womenswear prototypes and samples, and some Menswear. I am able to design to fulfill the styles you need. I have experience in both trendy youth wear , basic designs, cocktail/party dresses, homewear, pajamas, and mature lines.


2) Hand-drawn illustrations and production stretches.


3) Presentation boards including Design Boards, Mood Boards, Trend Boards, and Fabric Boards.


4) Styling, whether for a photoshoot or other occasions. I have a great eye for fashion styles and am confident in creating looks appropriate for your needs.

Each design includes an illustration, production stretch, and some relevant pictures. I can handle fabric and trims sourcing. I will explain workmanship to the pattern maker or merchandiser after I submit the designs, then follow up on sample appearance and fitting. I am very familiar with Women's and Men's wear fittings.

Enclosed is my portfolio website; please don't hesitate to email me at 
carol21car@gmail.com for my full resume and portfolios. I look forward to an interview and cooperating with you. Thank you for your time and consideration.


Best Regards,

Miss Yu
