About Marilou

Looking to bring impactful collections to life without friction between creative idea and manufacturing reality? I translate your artistic vision into impeccable visual and technical concepts.

What sets me apart is my dual expertise: I combine the flair of a fashion designer (trend analysis, original print creation) with the structural rigor needed for garment construction. By handling graphic ideation and the clarity of your technical drawings, I help you align your brand image and deliver work tools of absolute precision for your production teams.

My preferred projects and deliverables:
-Technical Packs: Detailed 2D vector flat technical drawings, component annotations, and construction details.

-Graphic and Textile Design: Creation of patterns, original prints (placed or all-over), and color palettes.

-Artistic Direction: Trend analysis, seasonal themes, and moodboards.
