Back to original languageAbout Virginie
What drives me daily: fashion, quality products that last, as little waste as possible, transparency (especially on working conditions and traceability), nature, doing things differently.
I decided to work freelance after 15 years in "conventional" textiles, and on the verge of forty, I needed to find meaning by reconciling my personal sensitivities with my professional life: combining product research and development with my conviction about the best way to produce it.
The product has always been my main motivation in my successive roles. I have a strong sensitivity for eco-responsible products.
I have built and maintained a network of suppliers in various sectors, which I found during my previous roles or sourced more recently at trade shows.
My years in contract manufacturing have allowed me to refine my technical expertise on fabrics and today give me the ability to advise.
In parallel, always with the goal of combining meaning and daily life, I resumed my studies 2 years ago and trained as a naturopath.
Autonomous, organized, I like quick decision-making.
