European Textile Product Development
From European
Ateliers to
Global Brands
I design and develop premium textile collections for lifestyle brands — from creative direction to production oversight, with a network of certified ateliers across France, Portugal, Italy and Poland.
Capabilities
End-to-End Textile
Product Development
Creative Direction
Collection concept, moodboards, color palettes, and design language aligned with your brand DNA. From initial vision to production-ready technical drawings.
Product Development
Material selection, prototyping, tech packs, and sample development. I translate creative vision into manufacturable products with precise specifications.
European Sourcing
Direct relationships with certified ateliers in Normandy, Vosges, Guimarães, and beyond. OEKO-TEX and GOTS certified supply chains. No middlemen.
Production & QC
On-site production oversight from France and Switzerland. AQL 2.5 inspection, lab testing, and pre-shipment quality control at every stage.
Current Focus
Premium Table Linen
for Lifestyle Brands
Building on 8+ years of premium textile product development, I am now applying my expertise to table linen — the highest-margin, lowest-risk textile category for DTC lifestyle brands expanding into home. The skills are the same: creative direction, tech packs, European atelier sourcing, production oversight, and quality control. The category is new. The craftsmanship is proven. I bridge the gap between brand vision and production reality — designing collections that tell a story while managing the entire European supply chain. Napkins, tablecloths, placemats, kitchen towels, table runners. Concept to delivery in 16–20 weeks. 65–81% Gross margins on premium table linen 16–20 Weeks concept-to-delivery Zero Perishability — ships globally, no FDA The European Advantage
I bridge that gap — designing collections that tell a brand story while managing the entire European supply chain. Napkins, tablecloths, placemats, kitchen towels, table runners. Concept to delivery in 16–20 weeks.
The European Advantage
Why Source From
European Ateliers?
Storytelling Power
European craftsmanship adds narrative depth to every product. Normandy flax, Portuguese embroidery, centuries-old techniques — these stories sell.
Premium Justification
For lifestyle brands positioning premium-yet-accessible home products, European origin adds perceived value that justifies the price point — without alienating the core audience.
Sustainability Built-In
EU regulations ensure ethical production. GOTS and OEKO-TEX certifications come standard. European linen uses 80% less water than cotton.
Drop-Ready Scarcity
Small-batch European ateliers create genuine exclusivity — perfect for limited-edition seasonal drops that sell out fast.
