Marc Jacobs
I freelanced at Marc Jacobs in the trim department covering the Spring 2018 and Fall 2018 collections. I sourced and developed trims for both runway and commercial collections communicating with multiple departments, vendors, and factories. It was very exciting to work for a storied designer and brand. The importance of attention to detail and excellence in the pursuit of innovative and boundary pushing designs is what I learned the most and took with me to all my future work.
