Cielle in a few words
I have been working for 4 years as a Textile Designer (crochet by hand) for the brand Par Cielle.
Passionate about crochet, art and fashion, I am looking for professional opportunities in the fashion, design and furnishing sectors (Design of accessories, clothing and home wears).
I graduated at the Queensland University of Technology (Australia) as well as from the National Institute of Fashion Technology (New Delhi, exchange of 6 months) where I obtained a double degree (distinction) in Fashion Design and Marketing, specialising in textile development.
My training in fashion school would allow me to meet your current needs for sustainable textile design. I am also passionate about sustainable design and practices and have attained 2 certificates on Sustainability in Fashion from the London University of the Arts.
I previously worked as assistant for Parkwood Entertainment, creating costumes for Beyonce and her dancers with the designer Michaela Stark.
I also have collaborated with P.A.M (Perks and Mini) twice, creating products for their collections.
Do not hesitate to contact me for your creative projects.
