hi, it's me, adace. 

I’m an apparel designer with a strong focus on both creative direction and technical execution — the kind of work that bridges aesthetic vision with real-world functionality. I’ve spent my career building product that not only looks great but fits, performs, and gets made. Whether it’s developing styles from the ground up or refining garments through multiple fit rounds, I love being hands-on through the entire process. That full spectrum thinking, from concept to final spec, is what drives me and makes the work meaningful.

I bring experience across both large-scale retailers and emerging brands, working within fast-paced teams where adaptability and ownership are key. I’ve managed end-to-end product development, from initial sampling with global vendors to tracking timelines, leading fit sessions, and overseeing final production. I've worked across womenswear, menswear, and kidswear, and thrive most in environments that value both big-picture thinking and precision in the details. More on that here.
