ALICE DENSON-SMITH
Hi, I’m Alice, a fashion designer with a First-Class degree in Contour Fashion (BA Hons) from De Montfort University. Once I finished my degree, I decided to freelance full-time in which I learnt how to work on multiple projects at once while keeping organised and working to deadlines. I also gained experience in creating a wide range of products for varying niches including small-cup and vintage-inspired lingerie, swimwear and sustainably sourced bondage lingerie. During this time I found a passion for helping clients and brands create new innovative products.
I'm currently working as a design assistant for Killstar. In this role I work within a highly skilled product development team to create impactful, unique and empowering designs. I have designed for intimates, womenswear, menswear, shoes and accessories giving me a range of experience in all categories. I’m responsible for creating detailed cads and concise design sheets along with communicating with factories to ensure the design is executed well and to a high standard. I also assist in fit sessions where I ensure the design is correct and suggest any changes or new ideas to create the perfect product for the Killstar consumer. Along with this I work closely with the garment technologists to fit any lingerie styles using my knowledge from my degree and previous experiences in the intimate apparel industry to level up the intimate apparel styles. Working closely with the team I create moodboards, new collections and assist with sourcing fabrics to create the unique products for Killstar.
If I’m not designing or sewing (which is very rare) you’ll usually find me listening to music, having a cup of tea in a cute café or creating something for myself!
