ABOUT Helen

I’m a Lingerie & Apparel Designer and Technical Designer with 4+ years of experience across New York and Paris. I specialize in fit optimization, pattern and construction corrections, grading coherence, and PLM-based technical workflows for lingerie, sleepwear, loungewear, activewear, and swimwear.

At Adore Me—a B Corp certified company—I developed hands-on expertise in tech packs, measurement charts, fit documentation, and digital/manual pattern corrections, collaborating closely with Design, Production, QA/QC, and global manufacturers to ensure every garment meets brand, fit, and production standards. I am comfortable working remotely across time zones and managing complex workflows with cross-functional teams.

Alongside technical development, I bring creative design skills to lingerie and apparel, exploring fabric, material, and silhouette innovation to create garments that are both visually compelling and technically precise. I enjoy merging artistic intention with wearable design, translating inspiration from technology, nature, and global cultures into modern, poetic, and functional pieces.

I have experience in sustainable product design, experimenting with materials such as Chitosan, and techniques including 3D printing and laser cutting. I am passionate about fashion illustration, 2D/3D design, and creative storytelling through garments, ensuring each piece reflects both innovation and thoughtful craftsmanship.

Based in Paris, I am fluent in English and Korean, with working knowledge of Mandarin Chinese, and I aim to merge technical precision with creative vision in every design I produce.
