A&C Collection - FALL 2014 & SPRING 2015

CATEGORIES: DENIM, KNITS AND WOVENS

A dynamic denim contemporary startup based in Los Angeles driven by a passion for crafting unique, high-quality pieces. Collaborated closely with in-house team design, sales, merchandising, while partnering with domestic and overseas vendors, production, wash, and dye houses to create seasonal collections for major retailers and online platforms. 
In my role as the assistant designer, I collaborated closely with the Senior Designer to craft technical CADs, hand sketches, style development sheets, and comprehensive technical packages. This experience allowed me to actively participate in trend analysis, draw inspiration, and stay attuned to market dynamics. One of my first opportunities to be extensively hands-on throughout the design and development journey, spanning from initial ideation to the realization of the final product.
Furthermore, I had the privilege of working in close proximity with domestic production factories and wash houses for our denim pieces, fostering a deep understanding of the intricacies involved. Additionally, I engaged with overseas factories to coordinate the production of our knit and woven tops, as well as jackets, each season. This multifaceted experience not only enriched my skills but also provided invaluable insights into the collaborative efforts required to bring a diverse range of fashion pieces to fruition
