As a Full-Time Pattern Master specialising in woven garments, I lead the development of accurate, production-ready patterns based on international buyer tech packs and technical specifications. I analyse design intent, measurement charts, grading rules, and construction methods to ensure each garment meets fit standards, structural balance, and manufacturing feasibility before bulk production. I manage pattern development for woven garments including shirts, dresses, trousers, and structured pieces, ensuring precision in seam allowances, pattern shaping, dart manipulation, grading consistency, and technical construction alignment. My role includes reviewing buyer comments, implementing fit corrections, coordinating sample revisions, and maintaining strict measurement control throughout development stages. By applying structured technical evaluation and close collaboration with sampling and production teams, I have contributed to reducing sampling revisions, improving first-fit approvals, and minimizing delays in bulk manufacturing. I proactively identify potential construction and fit challenges during the development phase, ensuring smooth transitions from sample to production. I also provide technical guidance to ensure that design concepts are translated into balanced, manufacturable garments while preserving aesthetic intent and maintaining buyer standards. My focus remains on accuracy, efficiency, and production reliability, supporting both quality consistency and operational performance within the factory workflow.

As a Technical Designer, I am responsible for translating fashion designs into production-ready garments by developing accurate technical documentation and ensuring garments meet fit, measurement, and construction standards. My responsibilities include analyzing design concepts, creating detailed tech packs, preparing precise measurement specifications, developing construction guidelines, and supporting pattern development. I work closely with designers, pattern makers, sample teams, and production units to ensure each garment aligns with the original design intent while remaining feasible for manufacturing. I oversee sample development, review fit corrections, manage grading specifications, and identify potential production issues before bulk manufacturing begins. My focus is on accuracy, clarity, and efficiency to minimise sampling errors and reduce costly production revisions.
