the fashion feed - episode 47 - wtf is a tech pack?! with fashion designer lottie woods

After graduating from Nottingham Trent Uni in Fashion Design, she moved to London to pursue her career as a designer. After seven years of honing her craft and learning through working within well-respected suppliers, she felt ready to offer my skills as a freelancer.

She’s designed multi-products and graphics for many commercial brands, Topshop, Miss Selfridge, George Asda, and Primark, to name a few. Now, she helps others bridge the gap between initial ideas to finalised garments.

She’s always had a passion for designing with customers in mind. It is more than trends, it’s about problem solving, attention to detail and understanding how to create fit for purpose garments and of course with sustainability in mind.

the fashion feed - episode 42 - creating window displays with katie brew

Katie and I went to uni together to study fashion retail buying but our careers have gone in different directions! I thought it would be fun to speak to Katie and share her story about how she left buying and transferred to a completely different role! Katie is actually living in Germany at the moment as she works for a large retailer out there (we can’t name it otherwise she has to fill in loads of boring paperwork and tbh she cba!) haha!

Her stories that she shares in this episode are so honest & I’m super grateful to her for that! I know that whenever she says ‘for example’ that its actually something that she’s had to do for a wacky boss or client!
