About the Designer
Leila is a pattern maker with over 14 years of experience in garment construction, specializing in creative 2D and 3D development using CLO3D. Her work blends precise pattern cutting with digital workflows, focusing on fit, fabric simulation, and design detail. She gravitates toward a “classic with a twist” aesthetic—clean silhouettes with subtle, unexpected elements. With a background in tailoring and a hands-on approach to making, her garments are wearable and refined, with structure that serves both form and function. Leila uses 3D tools to reduce waste, reduce physical sampling, and bring more intention into the design process.
