Fashion Designer & Patternmaker

· WELCOME ·
This is my portfolio as a Professional in Fashion and Textile Industry as a Designer and Patternmaker.

About
My name is Marc Vidal
I am a clothing designer and pattern maker with extensive and diverse experience in the industry for more than 10 years.
I was the founder and director of "Knowtown Barcelona S.L.," a company dedicated to the design of affordable luxury clothing, with 95% of production carried out in Spain. This covered everything from fabric creation to the final garment production, including the comprehensive development of fabric and garment samples.
About a year and a half ago, I relaunched the brand "KNOWTOWN BARCELONA," this time focused on the luxury sector. As owner and creative director, my responsibilities included coordinating the design and pattern-making departments, designing collections, creating both physical and digital patterns, and managing workshops and suppliers of fabrics and trims, both locally and internationally.
In addition, I worked closely with communication and branding agencies to strengthen brand identity, as well as negotiating with distribution agencies and luxury multi-brand stores to ensure the commercialization of our collections.
However, due to difficulties in securing financing from public and private sources, along with extended billing periods and challenges in finalizing sales in stores while maintaining distributor confidence, we were forced to cease operations, despite the innovation in the structure and design of our garments.
I am confident that my experience managing product development teams, from design to production, and my knowledge in commercial areas, quality control, and purchasing, would allow me to bring value to your team.
I am currently seeking a new professional challenge where I can work as a pattern maker, fashion designer, or in quality control. I am certain that through a conversation, we could explore how my skills can contribute to your company's success and what we could achieve together.
I am available for an interview or any further questions. It would be an honor to be a part of your project.
