Hi, I’m Alessandro Pacella, a fashion and prints designer and product developer with an honours Fashion degree and a master in Fashion design and Business. I have years of international experience in both fashion and interiors, from luxury to high street, and I’ve worked in major fashion capitals such as Rome, Milan and London. I’m creative through lines and fabrics with a strong sensibility for nuances, inspired by shapes and colors, and I have deep knowledge of print and textile techniques, development and production across Europe and Asia. I’m open minded, passionate, highly organized, and detail oriented, taking pride in succeeding at my work, capable of managing multiple simultaneous projects and accustomed to work under pressure and tight deadlines. I enjoy working in a team as well as independently. I thrive on turning ideas into tangible products, from concept to production, and I’m always eager to push boundaries in both fashion and interior textiles. I value practical production knowledge and strong communication with suppliers and clients, and I look forward to bringing creativity and discipline to new opportunities.
