The Atelier

LINGERIE, CORSETRY & SWIMWEAR DESIGN / PATTERN MAKING

The Atelier is a design and development studio for lingerie, swimwear and corsetry brands.

Here’s what I can help you with:

Consulting & Design Creation

Do you have a general idea for your next collection but you need to translate it into a cohesive concept and detailed designs? We can work together to refine your ideas and develop a full collection. You’ll walk away with moodboards, a color and fabric inspiration panel and a lineup of CAD designs that will match your brand aesthetic and customer base.

3D DESIGN

3D prototypes are a very helpful tool to visualise new designs and style lines and make sure they look good on the body before making the actual garment. It’s also a great way to play with different colours, fabrics and prints!

pattern development & grading

I can help you turn your beautiful designs into well-fitting patterns, and grade them across all the different sizes that your brand offers. All patterns will be production-ready and delivered in digital format.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION PACKS

If you want to make sure that your garments turn out exactly the way you imagined, an accurate tech pack is essential. I’ll provide you with tech packs that describe all the key details of your garments, ensuring that the first samples come right and the final production runs smoothly.

PORTFOLIO

Testimonials from past & current clients

«I have been working with Sofia for over a year now. She has been nothing short of amazing, tackling our patent-pending bra brand head on. Her willingness to communicate in an effective, timely, and honest manner has been appreciated more than I can express. She has consistently gone above and beyond expectations, with her expertise being the best in the business. The quality of her work has proven to provide me with the extraordinarily professional tech packages and 3D renders needed when approaching manufacturers as well as potential brand investors.»
Jessica JohnsonFigiúra
«For a person starting a fashion business with no design experience, Sofia became my go-to person when I had questions about technical aspects of product design. I will continue working with her and highly suggest her to anyone looking for a bra/underwear designer. She knows her stuff!«
Natalia ShevchenkoNet Positive
«From the initial Zoom meeting and receiving a snapshot of Sofia’s previous work, it was clear to see that we would be working with not only a well experienced designer but also professional and articulate. Her communication skills and mannerism made me feel at ease asking questions. Sofia also provided me with a list of both manufactures, suppliers and held my hand through my first design range and launch process. Without hesitation, we would highly recommend Sofia to any company both start-up, well established and luxury.»
Violet Ellis Nikita Jane
«Sofia went above and beyond what I expected. I am a first time business owner with little fashion experience and she guided me throughout the whole technical drawing and tech pack process. She not only helped me with creating amazing tech packs that were professional and completed on time, but she also answered all of my questions thoroughly from fabrics, factories to deciding on the styles for my sustainable undergarment company. She understood the vision of what I wanted for my brand and made it come to life. Besides her expertise in the field of fashion and making incredible tech packs, Sofia is kind, patient and detailed oriented.«
Chelsia M. TheyShed
«Sofia is hands down the best freelance designer I’ve ever worked with. Not only did she deliver work above the standard I was looking for, she obviously has a great eye for design and fashion and is very knowledgeable on technical details. Sofia was quick, helpful, and had excellent communication – she would constantly update me on where she was at with the project, without me asking. Anyone is lucky to work with her.»
