Description

Fashion designer and pattern maker trained at ESMOD Paris, specializing in the development of designer ready-to-wear and high-end couture pieces.

I support brands and designers in the conception of their models, from sketch to final prototype, with particular attention to volumes, drape, and the quality of finishes.

My approach is part of a slow couture philosophy, favoring controlled production, with durable pieces and a focus on combining materials.

I intervene in particular on:

– development of models from sketches

– prototype creation

– pattern making and technical adjustments after fittings

– confection of unique pieces or small series

Through my brand Victoria Gualicia, I develop limited edition and custom-made creations, driven by an aesthetic inspired by various cultural influences.

I approach each project with a constant search for balance between creative intention, technical precision, and quality of execution.
