What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead knitwear and woven design, collection direction, and Made in Italy product development, combining brand image, creative research, supplier collaboration, and team leadership.

I've led knitwear and woven collection development at Twinset, overseeing two pre-collections, two main collections, and two runway collections while managing a team of five. I work from trend research, yarn and stitch selection through supplier management, with particular focus on Made in Italy capsules.

Across Emilio Pucci, Missoni, MaxMara, Valentino Fashion Group, and Olympia Wednesday, I've shaped brand image, colour palettes, prints, collection concepts, and product development. I've also brought fashion storytelling to campaigns and special projects for Bulgari, Tod's, Adidas x AS Roma, La Perla, and Dodo through bespoke garment creation, styling, vintage research, and costume direction.
