Dedicated textile designer who creates innovative, deadline-driven prints and embroidery, continuously growing my design skills.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I’m a dedicated, hardworking, detail-oriented textile designer passionate about art. I love creating impactful designs and continuously expanding my skillset, learning as I go and pushing myself to deliver exceptional work.
At KHAADI, I worked as a Textile Designer (Full Time), creating new and innovative designs from provided briefs and delivering them on time to meet deadlines. At FAIZA REHMAN, I started as a freelancer—designing a cutwork outfit and digital print dupatta—then designing prints for upcoming nikkah and mehndi collections, including lehngas, sari, and anarkalis.
I’ve also designed printed scarves and dupattas as a Textile Designer & Product Developer (Remote), created social media posts for marketing, and supported creative growth through organizing an exhibition in Pakistan and managing a stall. I bring a strong design foundation from my Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture Bachelor of Textile Design, plus experience in embroidery-focused work and recycled-material product design.
