About Mercedes

I have more than 14 years of experience as a designer in the textile sector, designing women's collections.

I have worked in important fashion companies in Spain such as Amichi, El Corte Inglés, and TENDAM (Grupo Cortefiel). Additionally, in 2020, I founded my sustainable boho clothing brand "MER".

My responsibilities have ranged from trend and color research, preparation of mood boards and panels, production trips to India, China, Turkey, and Bangladesh and Pakistan, as well as shopping trips and fashion fairs (Paris, London), creation of technical sheets, production monitoring, fitting reviews with the pattern making technical team, and selection of looks for lookbooks and shop windows.

I have had the opportunity to design a wide variety of products such as knitwear, circular knits, wovens, denim, blouses, dresses, and accessories, specifically pajamas, scarves, bags, and belts.

As skills, I could highlight emotional intelligence, teamwork, creativity, and initiative.
